Venetian Art - Painting of Venice
The beauty of Venice Italy has inspired artists for centuries (Canaletto being the most obvious artist inspired by Venice). Thanks to Canaletto, the beauty of Venice was shared globally long before the advent of photography, let alone social media. Many artists have followed in Canaletto's footsteps, capturing the unique qualities of Venice on canvas.
I have longed to be able to offer contemporary art on the site that
continues that tradition. Finally, after much convincing, a wonderful artist has agreed to allow
me to offer limited edition prints of some of his greatest works.
The
artist is Kurt Wagner. Kurt thinks there is nowhere in the world more
beautiful than Venice, Italy, and I quite agree.
He has painted San Marco
and Santa Maria della Salute, the fish market, the Grand Canal, and many
other corners and bridges in this enthralling city.
These prints
of Kurt’s paintings allow you to share in the great joy he gets from
visiting Venice and to experience some of the centuries-old
charm of
this enchanting city.
The photos on this page show a selection of Kurt’s most important works.
