RUINAS, AZOTEAS Y TEJADOS<br />

Las ruinas y arquitecturas constituían en el siglo XVIII uno de los elementos<br />

integrantes de la pintura de paisaje, al que otorgaban un carácter pintoresco.<br />

Como tales, fueron objeto de la atención de los jóvenes artistas que se<br />

formaron en Italia a finales de siglo y comienzos del siguiente, siguiendo la<br />

tradición del paisaje idealista del XVII y de las vedute del siglo XVIII. Ahora<br />

bien, en los estudios al aire libre ese pintoresquismo cedió terreno ante el<br />

afán de veracidad que perseguía, no tanto una estricta atención al detalle,<br />

sino la correcta plasmación del motivo en su conjunto, en sus formas y texturas,<br />

y en sus valores tonales.<br />

RUINS, TERRACES AND ROOFS<br />

In the 18th century, ruins and certain architectural features became key factors<br />

in landscape painting, endowing it with a picturesque character. Such<br />

features attracted the attention of young painters who trained in Italy in the<br />

late 18th and early 19th centuries, following the tradition of 17th-century<br />

idealist landscape and 18th-century vedute. In open-air studies this picturesque<br />

element was gradually abandoned in favour of a desire for veracity<br />

which pursued a correct representation of the motif as a whole with regard<br />

to forms, textures and tonal values rather than strict attention to detail.
