Summary

Description
English: This landscape by Nicolino Calyo looks down upon the Fairmount Waterworks in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from atop a high hill. A long stairwell with visitors walking on it climbs down the hill towards the Fairmount Waterworks buildings that line the shore of the Schuylkill River. Calyo was a gifted landscape painter who was born in Italy but left in the early 1820s and immigrated to the United States in 1834. He has two paintings in the White House Collection.
