Third session: Monet, Venice Views, the Series
Claude Monet visited Venice in 1908, producing a total of 37 canvases of the city’s architectural landmarks, bathed by the play of light and their reflection on the canals and lagoon. He painted the iconic Gothic façade of the Doge’s Palace, the Baroque church of Santa Maria della Salute and the Neo-classical San Giorgio Maggiore. He also painted the façades of the private homes along the Grand Canal: Palazzo Dario, Palazzo Contarini, and Palazzo da Mula.
