The Grand Canal in Venice from Palazzo Flangini to Campo San Marcuola (painting (visual work); Canaletto (Giovanni Antonio Canal) [Italian artist, 1697-176...; about 1738; J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center (Los Angeles, Los A...; 2013.22)
Note: Canaletto was at the peak of his powers when he created this view of the sun-drenched palaces lining the Grand Canal and reflected in its shimmering water. With precise brushwork, he also evoked the effects of soot and crumbling stucco disfiguring the facades.
