The people’s faces and hands we can see have pale, peachy skin. The men wear hats and shin-length capes or jackets over stockings in tones of charcoal gray, olive green, butterscotch yellow, black, and brown. The women wear black capes covering their heads and long, full skirts. The ash-brown plaza has two zones where geometric patterns are picked out in a lighter, oatmeal brown. Three coral-red flagpoles are spaced along the center of the plaza parallel to the two buildings. Each flagpole rests on an olive-green base about a third of the height of the pole. Tables under open umbrellas clustered around the outer two flagpoles display piles of cloth, and a few people gather around the wares. The domed building extends into the scene from the left edge of the painting, and reaches about a third of the way across as it angles away from us. It has a central portal with nested arches, flanked to each side by a pair of slightly smaller, arched portals. Scenes against gold backgrounds appear in the archway of each of the five doors. There is a second level of arches above. The smaller arches to either side are decorated with more scenes of people against gold backgrounds. Four gold horses stand atop the central, lower arch, each with one front and one back hoof raised. The arch behind them is dim, the back side of a stained-glass window. The stone of the arches and front of the building are light brown. The upper arches are lined with pale, slate-gray spires and curling tracery. The three-story pink building sits close by to our right, extending into the distance on the same angle as the church, and as tall as its neighbor. The lowest level is a series of open, pointed arches. The second level is also a row of arches, but more closely spaced. People walk and stand under both covered walkways. The top half of the building has a carnation-pink façade with seven windows evenly spaced across its width. The central window is surrounded by carved stone ornament. Along the right edge of the painting and closer to us than the large buildings is the corner of a two-story building. The lower level is in shadow under a sloping awning, creating a merchant’s stall, and the second level has a rounded, arched window. One person stands at the front corner of the roof and looks down into the square. In the narrow gap between the row of buildings to our left and the smaller structure to our right is a winged lion atop a tall column. Beyond that is sparkling blue water with several masted ships and long, narrow gondolas. The sky above has thin white clouds against a pale blue sky. The artist signed the lower left, “A.C.F.”","images",{"_297":298,"_299":300,"_301":302},"download_url","https://img.ochreeditions.com/m/1470.jpg?dl=1","page_url","/art/the-square-of-saint-mark-s-venice-nga-32588","walk_url","/galleries/style/italian-settecento/the-square-of-saint-mark-s-venice-nga-32588","frame",{"_293":294,"_295":296},{"_227":286,"_125":287,"_288":289},"size",{"_279":280,"_281":282,"_283":246,"_284":285},"w",168,"h",128.255859375,"image_w","image_h",113.255859375,{"_290":227,"_123":170,"_154":169,"_140":93},{"_290":125,"_123":291,"_154":292,"_140":280},"era",{"_290":288,"_123":166,"_154":165,"_140":168},"facet","style/painting-18","More paintings of the 18th century","moulding","natural","mount","ivory","480","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1470/480.jpg","960","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1470/960.jpg","1920","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1470/1920.jpg","nga","national-gallery-of-art","National Gallery of Art, Washington","city","Washington, DC",{"_313":323,"_315":324},{"_313":321,"_315":322},{"_313":319,"_315":320},{"_313":317,"_315":318},{"_313":314,"_315":316},"hex","#c79f7e","weight",0.0455,"#4f4332",0.1144,"#746248",0.2045,"#957f5d",0.2257,"#aab3a4",0.4099,"Canaletto","canaletto","bio","Italian, 1697–1768","nationality","Italian","birth_year",1697,"death_year",1768,"birth_place","Venice","death_place","about_excerpt","Canaletto, the son of a Venetian painter of theatre scenery, turned in the 1720s to painting views of his native city and became its leading vedutista.

The canal begins in the lower left corner and angles slightly right as it travels to the horizon, which comes about a third of the way up this composition. One, two, three, or four-story buildings line the canal to the left into the far distance. Arched doorways give direct access to the water, and one person leans out an upper-story window. The buildings are reflected in the gently rippling water, which is painted in shades of olive green. A stepped bridge crosses the canal in the near distance, and two gondoliers guide a long, narrow boat to a platform alongside the plaza in the bottom left corner of the composition. People walk or stand singly or in pairs on the plaza in the bottom right quadrant of the painting. The women wear dresses with long skirts and head coverings in shades of black, white, yellow, or pale pink. The men wear hats, jackets, capes, stockings, and slacks in shades of peanut brown, muted yellow, red, blue, or white. The people all appear to have pale, peachy skin. A statue of a man riding a horse rests on a towering platform in a grassy patch to our right. Beyond it is the blocky form of a red brick church. One man in a pair standing on the plaza gestures toward the entrance with a walking stick and others approach the central entrance. Sunlight streams across the scene from the upper right, throwing the church façade into shadow and casting a deep shadow across the face of another building that encloses the far side of the plaza. That second building has arched windows and doors, statues lining the roofline, and a winged lion over the entrance.
