A rare and exquisite view of Venice by Gaspare Vanvitelli. The painting depicts the city from the Island of San Giorgio. The dominant elements are boats and gondolas. The boats vary in size, carrying goods or passengers, and move along the canal, signaling the lively Venetian traffic. This work, dated 1719, is part of van Wittel's oeuvre, created during a stay in Venice, a city he loved and depicted.
The day is slightly gloomy, highlighting the Doge's Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, and the other buildings in the square. The dominant colors are the shades of blue and light gray of the sky and the canal water, also painted in shades of blue-green.
The work is housed at the Musee Municipal, Dole, France.
