Description: | A decorative work depicting the Rialto area of Venice, with the Rialto bridge and the campanile of S Bartolomeo to the right. Details include various craft, a boat to the left is laden with fruit and vegetables. The handling is of pedestrian quality. There is an illogical detail - a detached tail fin of a gondola at the extreme right, perhaps evidence that the gondola has been over-painted. The work forms a pair with A451, which has similar dimensions and an identical frame. | Subjects: | Rialto place (Venice Grand Canal); buildings and gardens | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Canaletto (Italian painter, 1697-1768) Æ Manner of Previously attributed to after Canaletto (Italian painter, 1697-1768) Previously attributed to Canaletto (Italian painter, 1697-1768) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8377... | Go to resource |
