This painting shows a busy Venice scene with quick brushstrokes. You see domes, tall buildings, and a crowd below. The colors are mostly blues, whites, and grays, with some pinks and browns mixed in. The artist used loose, sketchy lines to show light and movement. This style was common in the late 1800s. Look up Hercules Brabazon Brabazon next to see more of his work.
