"Veneza (Canaleto)" is an oil painting completed in 1924 by the Brazilian artist Anita Malfatti. This painting, likely inspired by Malfatti's travels to Italy, showcases a vibrant, colorful depiction of a Venetian canal, featuring a gondola under a bridge and glimpses of surrounding architecture. Malfatti's use of bold colors and simplified forms reflects her engagement with European modernist trends, particularly the influence of Cubism. The painting is characterized by a flat perspective and a fragmented composition, which creates a sense of dynamism and visual depth.
