Detailed Description
In the early 17th century, a new genre of painting emerged in Italy that came to be known as the veduta. Veduta, which means “view” in Italian, refers to a highly detailed, usually large-scale painting or drawing that captures a specific location. The genre was popularized by the Venetian artist Giovanni Antonio Canal, better known as Canaletto. Canaletto’s vedute are characterized by their realistic style and careful attention to detail. He often included figures in his paintings to give a sense of scale and human activity. His work was so realistic that it was often mistaken for photographs. Other notable veduta artists include Francesco Guardi, Michele Marieschi, and Bernardo Bellotto. The genre continued to be popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, and was even adopted by some landscape painters in the United States, such as Thomas Cole and Asher B. Durand. Today, the term veduta is sometimes used to refer to any large-scale, detailed painting or drawing, regardless of its subject matter.
