View of Rome from the Ponte Molle, oil painting.
Wilson is recognised as one of the greatest of British landscape artists. Painters such as Constable and Turner acknowledged a debt to Wilson, whose influence included treating landscapes as areas of light and texture. Wilson also completed a related series of drawings 'Rome view from the Ponte Milvio by moonlight' which were similar in composition to subsequent sketches by Turner.
