Bildbeschreibung
The artwork shows a view of a Venetian lagoon with a color palette of soft grays and blues. The horizon is low, showing a large sky above. A gondola with figures is on the water. To the right, a boat with a red sail is visible. In the distance, there are additional boats and an outline of buildings. The brushstrokes are delicate and precise.
