About the piece
Painted around 1770 by Francesco Guardi, this oil on canvas captures the lively atmosphere of Venice during a Doge's election celebration. The composition masterfully balances the immense, bustling crowd in the square with the soaring height of the Campanile and the intricate facade of St. Mark's Basilica. Guardi’s atmospheric style and flicking brushwork bring a sense of immediate movement and light to this monumental urban landscape.
