Choose options
The Doge's Palace, Venice, painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir in 1881, captures the sunlit facade of the Doge's Palace and the Campanile across the shimmering waters of the Venetian lagoon, with colorful sailboats and gondolas animating the foreground. Painted during Renoir's first visit to Venice, the work reflects a transitional moment in his career, its luminous handling of light and water recalling the influence of his friend Claude Monet. The painting is now held in the collection of the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts.
Artist: Pierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919). Date: 1881.
