About the piece

Painted circa 1867 by Félix Ziem, this evocative work captures the timeless allure of Venice. The composition features the iconic Gothic architecture of the Doge's Palace and the granite columns of the Piazzetta, contrasted against the shimmering blue of the lagoon and a soft, expansive sky. Ziem's masterful use of light and loose, painterly brushwork brings the bustling shoreline to life.
