Description

Attributed to Johann Richter

Stockholm 1665-1745 Venice

Venice: A View of the Piazzetta and the Isola San Giorgio

oil on canvas

canvas: 56 3/4 by 44 1/2 in.; 144.1 by 113 cm.

framed: 62 by 49 1/8 in.; 157.5 by 124.8 cm.

The present scene can be dated to between circa 1728 and 1742 on the basis of the topography of this scene, so it likely dates to the later period of Richter's career in Venice, where he died in 1745.
