An Italian set of three oval-shaped oil paintings on canvas. All three paintings have oval-shaped wooden frames painted white, featuring carved cross-shaped reliefs. They are decorated with the famous Italian trompe-l'œil technique, which aims to mimic the appearance of another material through the masterful polychromatic painting of the wooden base. Each piece depicts a different classical ruin, always set within a natural landscape dominated by rocks and vegetation. The color palette of each piece is in grisaille, featuring various shades of pastel tones, accented with black and brown outlines that create the grisaille effect so characteristic of the Renaissance painting it emulates.
