Description
St Mark’s Square, Venice. Signed José Luis Ortega, Spanish School, 20th century
Oil on panel. Dimensions: 71 x 51 cm; 84 x 64 cm. A view of St Mark’s Square in Venice, with gondolas lined up in the foreground and the monumental Venetian architecture stretching towards the horizon. The scene features the Doge’s Palace, monumental columns and the bell tower, set against a vast sky of cottony clouds and iridescent reflections on the water. The composition combines architectural precision and vibrant colour through meticulous brushwork that lends luminosity and dynamism to the whole. The work belongs to the tradition of 20th-century European urban landscape painting, drawing on the Venetian tradition and the highly decorative appeal of tourist paintings. The richness of the reflections and the atmospheric depth of the canal are particularly noteworthy.
