About the piece

Created in 1904, this tempera work by Wassily Kandinsky captures the nocturnal atmosphere of Venice. The artist uses a rich palette of deep blues and purples to depict the Grand Canal, contrasted by the luminous arch of the Rialto Bridge and stylized white clouds, showcasing his early mastery of color and form before his transition to pure abstraction.
