Alberto ProsdomiciI (1852-1925) - Laguna di Venezia

This splendid view of St. Mark's Basin by Alberto Prosdocimi stands out for a poetic realism and a soft luminosity, typical of his mastery of watercolor. It is a watercolor on paper.
The scene depicts with calligraphic precision the moored boats and the monumental profile of San Giorgio Maggiore in the background, enveloped in a crepuscular light that fuses the warm tones of the sky with the gray-blue reflections of the lagoon. The balance between the minutiae of technical detail and the suspended atmosphere gives the work that quiet elegance that made the artist famous among the Venetian vedutists of the nineteenth century.

The artwork is hand-signed by the painter on the front of the painting.
