About Artwork: (About 1770) "Guardi delighted in capturing the charm of his beloved Venice, and here he has given it a soft, powdery appearance and dreamy atmosphere. Trade is the focus in the foreground – the basin of San Marco and the quayside is a hive of activity. Lively brushstrokes evoke the bustle of the city at work, from the movement of boats as they glide across the lagoon to that of the tiny figures dotted along the quayside. In the left corner, a large barge filled with goods is at anchor; its graceful white sail frames the scene. A group of tightly packed vessels on the far right almost merge with the shops behind; the men are little more than daubs of colour, but Guardi still managed to portray their industriousness. Gondoliers ferry passengers and await clients beside the Molo (a broad stone quay), with the Doge’s Palace and campanile (bell tower) of San Marco beyond." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
