| Notes | This painting originally formed part of a set of four that date to the 1730s, the decade when Canaletto produced what is generally regarded as his most 'characteristic' work, and the catalogue notes that this work "would undoubtedly be better known had it not been hidden from public view," adding that "The only other painting of the present subject accepted...as a work of Canaletto was a much larger canvas (45 x 60 in.) seen...at Castle Howard, but destroyed in the fire there in November 1940 and only known from a photograph in the Castle Howard archives." | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
