Original etching, signed in plate " B.B. called Canaletto f. " lower right; Delneri 1999, no. 5 ; Kozakiewicz 44;
Superb proog in its final state, printed with particular sharpness. Paper lacks watermark, as is often the case with small-format works.
Complete and with a small 3 mm margin all around beyond the marginal line. Perfectly preserved.
The etching is part of the early cycle executed by the engraver, dedicated to the Italian landscape, and in particular to the Veneto, for this reason known as the Italian Acqueforti group. Etchings in which there is a reference to his uncle Canaletto, but which are distinguished by a greater descriptive interest and a compositional sensibility already well delineated.
