Oil on canvas, 2004. Size: 91.5x61cm (36"x24")The gondolas tied up in front of Piazzetta San Marco with the dome of Santa Maria della Salute in the background. The magical light of the morning burnishes this cameo of Venice, beloved by painters. The brilliant and most original idea of the 17th century Venetian architect Baldassare Longhena the Salute was built to commemorate the victory over the terrible plague, but it is also an exultation of the Virgin Mary.
