A PERSPECTIVE VIEW OF THE CITY OF VENICE VUE PERSPECTIVE DE LA VILLE DE VENISE

£495

Stunning original colour example of this sought after view of Venice

The print is elevated, wide-angle bird’s-eye perspective looking across the Venetian Lagoon toward the primary shoreline of the city.

The water dominates the lower third of the image. It features heavy maritime activity, including large European merchant ships with billowing sails, smaller Venetian fishing vessels, and iconic long black gondolas slicing through the water. The positioning of the boats is highly stylized to lead the viewer’s eye deeper into the frame

The city skyline forms a sweeping horizontal band across the center of the print. Key landmarks like the Doges' Palace (Palazzo Ducale), the St. Mark's Campanile (bell tower), and the grand domes of the Basilica di San Marco and Santa Maria della Salute are visible.

A very good example of this view in original colour
