Canaletto In Venice Calendar

A light-filled wall calendar celebrating the canals, people and architecture of Venice. Reproducing exquisite Venetian views or ‘vedute’ from 12 paintings by the Venetian artist known as Canaletto (1697-1768), the popular name for the artist meaning ‘Little Canal’ after his father’s surname of Canal. Painted ‘en plein air’, Canaletto became particularly popular with English collectors and Grand Tourists. Intricate and detailed, Canaletto’s views are noted for the quality of light and water effects but also capture the bustle of daily life on the city’s canals and in the city’s squares. Includes ‘Bucentaur’s Returns to the Pier by the Palazzo Ducale’, 1728-29; ‘The Rialto Bridge’, c.1724-30; ‘The Square of St Mark’s’, 1742-44; ‘View of the Canal of Santa Chiara’, c.1730; and ‘The Grand Canal with San Simeone Piccolo and the Scalzi Church’, c.1740. Be transported to the vibrant city of Venice and savour the skies and water of superlative paintings every day of the year.
