The artwork
An original 18th-century view of St Mark's Square with the church of San Geminiano in the background, made by Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto. In the foreground is the rectangular square, with the great bell tower of St Mark's on the left. Behind the bell tower a large Venetian palace overlooking the square can be seen.
The square is full of people, and there are also stalls, with scenes of everyday life. Prominent on the right-hand side are other palaces side by side overlooking the square. The sky is serene with a few white clouds on the horizon. The picture, an oil on canvas, is dated 1724.
The work is kept in the Royal Collection in London.
