Venise et le Campanile au clair de lune 1870 - 1890

Félix Ziem's "Venise et le Campanile au clair de lune," painted between 1870 and 1890, captures the ethereal beauty of Venice under a luminous moon. The artist, known for his depictions of the city, uses a soft palette to depict the shadowy cityscape with the Campanile towering above the water. The hazy sky, punctuated by the full moon, creates a dreamlike atmosphere that draws the viewer into the tranquil scene. The solitary gondola in the foreground adds a sense of intimacy and solitude, inviting contemplation on the timeless allure of Venice.
