A view of San Giorgio Maggiore from the Bacino of San Marco, Venice

This view depicts on the left the Church of San Giorgio Maggiore and on the right the Punta della Dogana. Giacomo’s father, Francesco Guardi, painted a similar view in a large canvas in the Glasgow Museums (inv. 184; see A. Morassi, Guardi. Antonio e Francesco Guardi, Venice, 1975, no. 422, ill.).
