Exhibition on Screen: Canaletto & the Art of Venice
Canaletto & the Art of Venice, an immersive journey into the life and art of Venice's famous view-painter, kicks off the fifth season of EXHIBITION ON SCREEN. Giovanni Antonio Canal, also known as Canaletto, is the artist who best captures the essence and allure of Venice. The remarkable collection of over 200 paintings, drawings, and prints on display provides unparalleled insight into Canaletto's and his contemporaries' artistry, as well as the city he became a master at capturing. The film also gives viewers the opportunity to visit two official royal residences, Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, to learn more about the artist and Joseph Smith, the man who introduced Canaletto to Britain.
