## Commentary

The Grand Canal at San Geremia c. 1740 Oil on canvas, 54 x 82 cm Private collection After Canaletto and Francesco Guardi, Marieschi is the third most important painter of vedute in 18th-century Venice. Views of Venice were extremely popular in the 18th century, above all with the European travellers who were attracted to this centre of arts and of courtly life. In response to this demand, these painters reproduced different views of the city, including its squares and various canals.
