Excellent condition

We present an evocative view of Venice with a glimpse of the captivating Grand Canal, signed by the renowned French view painter Antoine Bouvard, also known by his pen name, Marc Aldine.

Considered one of the most accomplished illustrators of the lagoon city who worked there in the early 20th century, he became one of the most acclaimed view painters of the period, with a success that led him to exhibit throughout France and Italy as well as in numerous European galleries.

Extremely well executed, characterized by a subtle luminosity and a color palette of delicate hues, highlighted by the contrast between light and shadow, our canvas is a highly interesting testament to his painting.

His Venetian views are immersed in a fluidity that delicately caresses the volumes, capturing the atmosphere and charm of what is considered the most fascinating city in the world through an incredible selection of colors and magical lighting effects.

Here, the artist has superbly expressed his extraordinary pictorial skills, creating an atmosphere imbued with poetry, which perfectly captures the unique characteristics that distinguish each view of Venice.

The canvas is in excellent condition.
