An original 18th-century view of gondoliers near the Rialto Bridge, by Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto. In the foreground are the gondoliers on the water, showing Venice to tourists. The day is clear, and the sky is mirrored in the water in shades of pale green and blue. Just beyond the gondolas a section of the Rialto Bridge can be seen. On the near bank of the canal are Venetian palaces reflected in the water.
The work is undated and is on display at the Museo del Louvre, Paris, France. Another variant of this work by Canaletto exists.
