Evening: Landscape with an Aqueduct

Théodore Géricault

1818

Evening: Landscape with an Aqueduct is an 1818 landscape painting by the French artist Théodore Géricault.

It was one of three monumental landscapes showing various times of the day (a planned fourth was not produced). Géricault combines a view of the aqueduct of Spoleto which he had visited in 1817, with the stormy skies and turbulent moods of the developing romantic movement. It is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
