ST. MARK'S VENICE

C1896/97 Walter Richard Sickert (1860 − 1942)

Sickert first visited Venice in 1895 where he painted a series of canvases depicting St Mark’s Cathedral in differing conditions. The façade of the basilica was one of his favourite aspects of the building, and one he painted time and again. This focus on a single subject was a characteristic of his work throughout his career. Versions of this view can be found in the collections of Tate, London www.tate.org.uk and the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford www.ashmol.ox.ac.uk.

.

This work is currently on loan to the National Trust and is displayed at Coleton Fishacre in Devon.
