About the piece

Painted circa 1875 by French artist Félix Ziem, this oil study on cardboard captures the ethereal atmosphere of Venice. The Church of the Gesuati stands prominently on the left, its architecture rendered with thick, confident brushstrokes that catch the afternoon light, while a cluster of sailboats rests on the calm, shimmering canal.
