Piazzetta und Bacino di San Marco
Canalettos zentralperspektivisch gestalteter Blick auf den Dogenpalast ist ein Musterbeispiel seiner reifen, europaweit gefragten Kunst, Venedig ebenso präzise wie stimmungsvoll zu porträtieren. Das Gemälde und sein Pendant stammen aus der Sammlung des Bildhauers Antonio Canova.
Piazzetta and Bacino di San Marco
Canaletto's central perspectival view of the Doge's Palace is a prime example of his mature style of painting that was much in demand throughout Europe, in which he portrayed Venice just as accurately as atmospherically. This painting and its companion piece came from the collection of the sculptor Antonio Canova.
