An original and luminous view of the Piazzetta San Marco with a detail of the Column of St Mark, by Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto. In the foreground is the Column of St Mark, seen from the front, overlooking the Piazzetta. At the foot of the quay are scenes of daily life and some boats, including two sailing ships. Further back are the buildings of the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. The sky is clear but with a few dark clouds.
The picture, an oil on canvas, is dated 1730.
