Rialto Bridge on Grand Canal in Venice

24 x 36″
Oil on Canvas

Taking a boat ride in Venice, Italy along the Grand Canal, whether by gondola, water taxi, or other means, you come upon a breathtaking view of the Rialto Bridge, the oldest bridge across the canal. It is one of the most photographed bridges in the world. I challenged myself to paint it, and I am very pleased with the outcome.
