Die Terrassen des Monte Cassino

Les Terrasses de Monte Cassino

This is thought to have been painted during a stay in Cassino, south of Rome, by Russell and his wife in 1889, but also recalls the landscape near Antibes, south-east France, visited by the artist in 1890-1. He portrays the sun-bleached landscape with a bold use of such colours as pink, yellow and turquoise.
