## Artwork

- Artist: [GUARDI, Francesco](<https://beta.wga.hu/artists/guardi-francesco-r3a36eeb031ccdb>)
- Date: 1751-1800
- Technique: Oil on canvas

## Commentary

Guardi did not always choose the most famous spots or buildings in Venice. Indeed, he often opted for less fashionable views depicting the houses that ordinary people lived in. This canvas has made an otherwise anonymous bridge famous. There is not an important public building in sight in this impoverished quarter.
