Original and luminous eighteenth-century view of Somerset House, painted by Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto. In the foreground there are the villa's beautiful gardens, maintained in the London style, and the walled bank of the Thames, traversed by boats. The villa is further in the background, seen frontally, with tree-lined avenues. The gardens are bustling with people, depicting scenes of everyday life. The day is clear and the sky is serene, with a few white clouds on the horizon.
The work, an oil on canvas, is undated and is part of a private collection. Two other variations of this work exist, created by Canaletto.
