We present an evocative view of Venice with a glimpse of the fascinating Grand Canal, signed by the famous French Vedutist Antoine Bouvard, also known by his pseudonym, Marc Aldine.
Considered one of the most talented illustrators of the lagoon city who worked there in the first part of the 20th century, he became one of the most acclaimed vedutists of that period, with a success that led him to exhibit throughout France and Italy as well as in numerous European galleries.
Very well executed, characterised by a light luminosity and a colour range of delicate hues, enhanced by the contrast between light and shadow, our canvas is a very interesting testimony to his painting.
His Venetian views are bathed in a kind of fluidity that caresses the volumes with great delicacy, capturing all the atmosphere and charm of what is considered the most fascinating city in the world through an incredible selection of colours and a magical light effect.
The author has here excellently expressed his extraordinary painting skills with an atmosphere imbued with poetry, which lends itself well to defining the unique characteristics that distinguish each and every view of Venice.
The canvas is in excellent condition.
