The work

The scene extends towards the horizon, with a viewpoint that includes a significant portion of the lagoon city, dominated by the grandiose architecture of the church of Santa Maria della Salute on the right.

The painting is distinguished by the use of chiaroscuro, which gives depth to the image and an evocative, almost dramatic atmosphere. The light, soft and filtered through the cloudy sky, selectively illuminates the architectural details and the boats scattered along the canal, creating a subtle contrast between the most illuminated areas and those in shadow. This play of light and shadow is typical of Canaletto's work, used here to highlight the grandeur of the city and the liveliness of the lagoon traffic.

The rendering of the water is particularly accurate: the ripples on the surface reflect the light from the sky, accentuating the impression of movement of the boats moving along the canal. The use of earthy tones, with touches of lighter color that define the architectural details, conveys a feeling of calm and realism, while remaining faithful to the taste for orderly and harmonious composition.
