The poem that inspired the painting is here

Percy Bysshe Shelley; Lines Written among the Euganean Hills

“Beneath is spread like a green sea
The waveless plain of Lombardy,
Bounded by the vaporous air,
Islanded by cities fair;
Underneath Day’s azure eyes
Ocean’s nursling, Venice lies,
A peopled labyrinth of walls,
Amphitrite’s destin’d halls,
Which her hoary sire now paves
With his blue and beaming waves.”

Materials used:

Oil Paint, gesso, varnish
