{"product_id":"canaletto-westminster-bridge-with-the-lord-mayor-s-procession-on-the-thames-fine-art-print","title":"Canaletto — Westminster Bridge, with the Lord Mayor’s Procession on the Thames | Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA broad stretch of the Thames fills the foreground, crowded with rowing boats and a few sailing vessels, while a long gilded barge crosses the centre broadside with red flags at bow and stern. Behind it a stone bridge of many arches spans the river, and the pale towers of Westminster Abbey rise above brown rooftops at the right. A wide sky of pale blue, with rose-tinted clouds low on the horizon, takes up the top half of the picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Yale Center for British Art reads the picture as marking two events at once: the river festivities of Lord Mayor's Day and the building of Westminster Bridge. The bridge was still under construction in 1747 and did not open until 1750, so Canaletto invented parts of its appearance, including statues of the Thames and Isis that were never built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil on canvas, 1747; Yale Center for British Art, New Haven.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanaletto (Giovanni Antonio Canal, 1697–1768) was an Italian painter, born and died in Venice. He first worked with his father, Bernardo Canal, and his brother on theatrical scenery, including in Rome in 1718, and from about 1719 turned to topographical views, learning from the older view-painter Luca Carlevarijs. He is known for vedute, or cityscapes, of Venice, painted with accurate perspective and detail. He spent roughly the years 1746 to 1755 in England, painting views of London and the Thames, and also made etchings. His work is held by the Royal Collection, the National Gallery, London and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
