Canaletto paintings

Canaletto was a famous Italian painter who lived in the 18th century and his real name was Bernardo Bellotto. The achievements of this master are very impressive. Canaletto is one of the most recognizable representatives of Venetian veduta painting. It consists in presenting a fragment of the city that looks more like a photograph than a painting. It is worth mentioning that Canaletto's paintings constitute an important collection in the pages of Polish history, as Belotto was invited to the Polish court by Stanisław August Poniatowski, where he obtained the position of court painter. The Italian artist took part in decorating the Ujazdowski Castle, where he painted frescoes and ornaments, which unfortunately were destroyed during the reconstruction. To this day, 24 vedutes have been preserved, showing the view of Warsaw and the Wilanów Palace. Canaletto's work is characterized by incredible detail, thanks to which his paintings were used as photographs during the reconstruction of the capital destroyed after World War II.
