This view of the Piazza San Marco, Venice shows Bellotto's devotion to faithful observation. At the left is the church of St. Mark with the Doge's Palace just beyond, leading to the lagoon. Vertically dividing the canvas is the campanile (bell tower) with the Procuratie Nuove (a government building) extending to the right. At the extreme right, opposite St. Mark's, is the façade of the church of San Geminiano which was removed in the 19th century by Napoleon. The two wings of the Procuratie were then joined across the west end of the piazza. Bernardo Bellotto was the nephew and student of Canaletto (Giovanni Antonio Canal, 1697–1768) who ran one of the most productive painting workshops in Italy. Like his uncle, Bellotto specialized in vedute (views) of Italy, especially Venice, which were purchased avidly by British aristocrats traveling on the Grand Tour. Bellotto later worked for the courts of Dresden, Vienna, Warsaw, and Munich, painting topographical and imaginary views of those cities.

Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm around the print motif, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
- Canvas: The canvas print is a printed cotton canvas mounted on a wood frame. Your canvas print of your favorite work of art will give you the unique chance to transform your fine art print into a large size collection piece like you would see in a gallery. A canvas print has the advantage of being low in weight, meaning that it is easy and straightforward to hang up your Canvas print without the use of additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
- Print on glossy acrylic glass: An print on acrylic glass, often denoted as a plexiglass print, makes the original work of art into great décor. The work of art is being printed with the help of modern UV direct print machines. The plexiglass protects your custom art print against light and external influences for decades.
- Aluminium dibond print: An Aluminium Dibond print is a print with an outstanding depth. The non-reflective surface structure creates a contemporary impression. For our Direct Aluminium Dibond print, we print the artwork on the surface of the white-primed aluminum. The bright & white parts of the artwork shine with a silky gloss, however without the glare.
