Giardini Publici, Fondamenta San Giuseppe, Venice 1885

"Giardini Publici, Fondamenta San Giuseppe, Venice" is a pen and ink drawing created by American artist Andrew Fisher Bunner in 1885. The drawing depicts a picturesque scene of a canal in Venice, Italy, with a bridge, boats, and lush foliage. This drawing, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City, exemplifies Bunner's keen eye for detail and his talent for capturing the essence of Venetian landscapes. This artwork is an example of the Impressionism movement, a style that captured the everyday life in a visually pleasing way, showcasing the beauty of a moment in time, rather than a stylized or idealized version of reality.
