163. VENICE: A VIEW ON THE GRAND CANAL

Оглавление

Canaletto (Venetian: 1697-1768). See 127.

The Church, that of S. Simeone Piccolo, was built in Canaletto's time. "One of the ugliest churches in Venice or elsewhere. Its black dome, like an unusual species of gasometer, is the admiration of modern Italian architects" (Stones of Venice, vol. iii. Venetian Index, s. v. Simeone).
