Aerial view of Tiberius’ villa at Sperlonga. The drawing is in landscape format. It is organized within a frame drawn in ink. Traces of watercolor and inscriptions are visible in the margins.
The villa is set on the Mediterranean coast. To the left, in the foreground, are the imperial guard stables and barracks. Below, in the background, the villa is arranged in front of several basins. A grotto and a triclinium line the cliff face. The basins are protected by a jetty. A quay provides mooring for boats.
