Tivoli is eighteen miles north-east of Rome, on the edge of the Sabine Mountains. Dughet’s picture appears to show the first of the waterfalls on the river Teverone (now Aniene) on the north-east side. It is one of the finest of several views of Tivoli painted by the artist and probably dates from late in his career, c.1661–1663. The picture enjoyed particular favour in England: it belonged to a number of distinguished English collectors, including James, 2nd Earl Waldegrave and the 2nd Earl of Ashburnham. It was also engraved, together with its pendant (today in the collection of the Duke of Westminster), and published in Pond’s series of Italian Landscapes in 1744.
