Guardi’s views of Venice differ from those of Canaletto in that they are less about a detailed description of individual buildings than an attempt to convey the magic of the city, enveloped—as here—in a diaphanous, silvery light. This view shows the cemetery island of San Michele with its early Renaissance church, designed by Mauro Codussi in 1469, flanked, on one side, by the domed Cappella Emiliani and the Gothic belltower and, on the other, by the (former) Camaldolensian monastery.
