"St. Mark's Square, Venice, with Loggetta" is a watercolor painting created between 1835 and 1845 by the British artist William Wyld. The painting depicts the iconic St. Mark's Square in Venice, Italy, showcasing the Loggetta, a small building with a balcony, and the Campanile, the bell tower of St. Mark's Basilica. Wyld’s watercolor captures the vibrant atmosphere of the square with its lively crowds and the dramatic sweep of a red flag billowing in the wind. The painting is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
