About the piece
Painted around 1882, this oil on canvas by Félix Ziem depicts a grand vessel firing a salute in the waters of Venice. The artist's impressionistic brushwork beautifully renders the shimmering reflections on the water and the iconic architecture of the Doge’s Palace against a hazy, sun-drenched sky, showcasing Ziem's obsession with the unique light of the Venetian lagoon.
