This large and magnificent painting is a work that can be attributed with absolute certainty to the hand of the multifaceted Venetian master Bartolomeo Pedon, a great interpreter of Venetian landscape painting between the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th century.
The numerous works carried out in his celebrated workshop range in various interpretations of the landscape, from vibrant seascapes to depictions of architecture, as well as interesting Venetian views. But it is with the fantastic landscapes of the Venetian hinterland, rich in vegetation among hills and mountains, that Pedon stands out for his extraordinary pictorial skills.
The painting proposed here, in fact, is presented in the most classic form of his compositions with all the pictorial, chromatic and descriptive prerogatives that make his most important and elaborate works unmistakable.
The scene is developed in order to obtain the maximum sense of depth with a series of subjects in continuous sequence up to the mountains in the background.
It is precisely here that Pedon shows off his typical repertoire of panoramic compositions. The stream that descends with swirling waters, fishermen in various poses under a bridge, and the ruins of a temple on top of a hill. The arrangement of the mountains is remarkable, with a clear search for a three-dimensional effect, a peculiarity that distinguishes his large canvases.
The characters that animate the scene are depicted effectively with confident brushstrokes that can be attributed directly to his hand.
It is a high-level painting, very pleasant and decorative, which furnishes any large environment with great prestige.
In addition to the remarkable beauty and excellent quality, we emphasize the importance of this rare and certain work by Bartolomeo Pedon which, together with the pleasure of seeing it on the wall, constitutes an excellent form of investment.
The canvas is in excellent condition.
We preferred not to restore the original frame which has small defects that do not prejudice the enjoyment of the work and bears the Author's initials impressed in fire.
