The view of the Temple of Spalato is probably related to the decree of the Abbe de Saint-Noni on his "Journey to the Kingdom of Naples and Sicilia". To this end, all kinds of views were drawn and engraved by many artists, incl. artists Louis-Francois Cassas and etchings by Lepagelet and Liénard.
Louis-François Cassas was a prominent French landscape painter, sculptor, architect, archaeologist and antiquarian. This work is in the collection of the State Hermitage, in St. Petersburg, Russia.
