Above the hills in the background Knip wrote ‘Frascati’, a town just southeast of Rome. This thus must be a view of the Baths of Caracalla from the northwest, with the Porta Latina, one of the city gates in the Aurelian Wall, in the left background. In the middle foreground can be seen the basilica of Santa Balbina, adjacent to a medieval monastery.
