COD 11326
Splendid view of Venice signed M.C. and dated 1917. Oil on canvas, first canvas, painting depicting St. Mark's Square with a frontal view of the famous Basilica and the large bell tower. The style is rooted in the Venetian vedutista tradition; the composition is centered with extreme perspective precision, while the scene is animated by small, meticulously depicted figures. The 20th-century carved and gilded wooden frame is beautifully decorated, with some signs of aging. The painting has already been restored, with some minor color retouching, but is in overall good condition. Internal dimensions: H 66 x W 50 cm.
