Over the water, over time … follow the canals of Venice and discover the City of the Doges seen by the painters of the “Settecento” (18th century) and their traditional “caprice” and “vedute”, and today through the eye of the semiological Venetian painter Tobia Ravà, whose numerous works reinterpret the famous Venice according to a logical conceptual path. Pictorial values have spread in the main cities of Europe since the Renaissance. In the 18th century, the idea of “city portraits” developed, and in particular in Venice, by the great performers Canaletto, Belloto, Guardi, Marieschi and many others, prompted by the interest of visitors to the “Grand Tower “.
