The paintings include scenes from myths, legends and biblical stories, along with lifelike Italian landscapes and war scenes. Although the exhibit is billed as a landscape exhibition, human characters are depicted in lifelike detail, and are the main subjects of most of the paintings.
畫作主題，或擷取自神話、聖經典故，或為義大利的寫生風情，也有戰爭實景；說是風景畫展，人物卻肌理賁張，幾乎都是畫面的主體。
