Venice, House on the Canal is a 1900 oil by Martín Rico, a Impressionism work, held at Clark Art Institute.
The painting depicts a serene scene of a house on a canal in Venice. The house is white with a brown roof and features several windows and a tree in front of it. In the foreground, two boats are visible, one with a person rowing and the other empty. The background shows a blue sky and a distant dome. The painting's use of oil paint creates a sense of depth and texture, with visible brushstrokes adding to the overall effect. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate depiction of the house and its surroundings. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Martín Rico, who was known for his landscapes and cityscapes.
Martín Rico y Ortega (El Escorial 12 November 1833 – Venice 13 April 1908) was a Spanish painter of landscapes and cityscapes.
