Urban Landscape with Figures
Viviano Codazzi
In Codazzi’s completely imaginary landscape groups of figures are depicted in a square bordered on two sides by imposing constructions. On the left, behind columns supporting a balcony, an archway appears to give onto a side street. Beyond it, an elegant portico, supported by pairs of columns with Ionic capitals, projects into the square.

Massacre of the Innocents
Viviano Codazzi
The theme of the Massacre of the Innocents is merely an expedient, dear to Codazzi, that enables him to create a spectacular architectural composition. And, indeed, the figures in this episode from the Gospel do not crowd the scene but seem lost in it.
