At centre stage, the Doge is carried through St. Mark's Square, amidst a jubilant crowd, on a special structure supported by several men.

A sunny day in May, June at the latest, showing a quiet Grand Canal navigated by a few boats.

The Church of San Zaccaria is one of the most important churches, historically attested by the presence of numerous prominent personalities buried inside.

This very lively, colourful and crowded painting by Carlevarijs shows us a spectacular regatta in honour of Frederick IV, taken from a point on the bend of the Grand Canal that allows us to glimpse a portion of the Rialto

The scene takes place on the Grand Canal towards today's Canale de Cannaregio, also depicting part of the Church of San Geremia and campanile in its entirety, Palazzo Labia

In this vivid view of Campo Sant'Angelo, the bell tower attached to the church, which no longer exists, stands out. The access to the field is now much wider.

A scene of daily life in St Mark's Square: apart from the multitude of people present today, nothing has changed since this cross-section painted by Canaletto.

Canaletto's painting shows us in the foreground an urban element which is no longer present today.

A splendid sunny day, portrayed by Bellotto from the shore of Campo Santa Maria Zobenigo (Santa Maria del Giglio), today Campiello Traghetto.

Among his works, the most significant are: the frescoes of the archiepiscopal palace of Udine (1726-30), the canvases for the Scuola del Carmine in Venice which represent one of his pearls (1743) and the frescoes for the residence of Carlo Filippo

In the spectacularity of the magnificence portrayed by Carlevarijs in this photograph of the time, an important detail is documented: boats loaded with timber, visible in the highest part of the San Marco Basin.
