Henry (Enrico) Coleman was of British nationality but lived in Rome for his whole life. He was a founding member of the 'Società degli Acquarellisti' and exhibited work at the Paris Salon in 1879. He enjoyed painting scenes of the Roman Campagna, as evidenced by the present work, which was probably painted 'en plein air'.
