Légende

Bellinzona from the Road to Locarno, 1843. Central to the composition, Bellinzona rises through vaporous mists. The long diagonal of the bridge that crosses the River Ticino at its wide mouth into Lake Maggiore, leads the eye into the narrow valley. Glowing highlights deftly reveal where the sun catches the city walls and the Italianate towers.
