"Entirely exceptional, in the context of Locatelli's career as a painter of idealised landscapes (eighty paintings are mentioned in an inventory of Palazzo Colonna dating from 1783; over twenty were the property of the Barberini family) are the very few topographical views of Rome (which were, on the contrary, Gian Paolo Pannini's specialty) among which is the Piazza Navona from the Gemäldegalerie der Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Vienna, dating from 1733."
