Canaletto & the Art of Venice is an immersive journey into the life and art of Venice's famous view-painter. No artist better captures the essence and allure of the city than Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto.This film offers the chance to step inside two royal residencies - Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle - to learn more about Canaletto, and Joesph Smith, the man who introduced him to Brtiain. Viewers will embark on their very own 21st century Grand Tour, visiting the sites enjoyed by their 18th century counterparts and immortalized in Canaletto's views - from the Rialto Bride to the Piazza San Marco, and the Palazzo. Guided by Royal collection Trust curators and the world's leading experts in Venetian history, this is not only a wonderful way to see the exhibition, but also an opportunity to get closer to Canaletto and the city that inspired him.
