The Arts Society Leicester present 18th Century England Through the Eyes of Canaletto
Speaker - Nick Salmond
The great Venetian artist Canaletto spent ten years living in London producing wonderful landscapes of the city and its surrounds. In this lecture, we explore his time in the capital and look at how his style changed during his long visit. We look at some of the work he produced and explore how the views he captured have changed over the centuries.
