Interior of Santa Maria dei Miracoli, Venice is a 1865 watercolor by Henry Louis Florence, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a church interior with tall arches and domes. The walls are light stone, and the ceiling has dark wood beams. A red circle sits in the dome’s center. Stairs lead up to a small balcony with a railing. The artist focused on how light hits the space. Shadows and highlights make the stone look real. Look up Henry Louis Florence next to see more of his work.
