About the piece

In this atmospheric study from 1875, Félix Ziem captures the transient beauty of a Venetian sunset. Thick, expressive brushstrokes define the silhouettes of a gondola and the iconic dome of Santa Maria della Salute against a hazy, golden sky. The work's moody palette and masterful use of light evoke the timeless, romantic spirit of the canal city.
