Reference:

The Loggia, not far from Amalfi, is now a hotel called I Cappuccini. Frey's diary suggests the date 1851 for this painting. The painter spent that summer at the Campagna, from where he went on to Naples. We also know that he was a frequent guest at the royal house of Naples - Text page 13 A Collection of Drawings and Paintings by Johann Jakob Frey, Maltzahn Gallery, London
