Naples: Course of Empire is a series of seven panoramic paintings by American artist Alexis Rockman (born 1962) inspired by Thomas Cole’s nineteenth-century cycle The Course of Empire. Executed in Rockman’s signature style of history painting, the works examine the long and fraught relationship between human civilization and the natural world.
