John Singer Sargent – Venetian Passageway [c.1905] on Flickr.
The view is across the Grand Canal towards the 16th-century Palazzo Grimani designed by Sanmicheli. On the right is the Rio di San Luca. On the grounds of style the work is datable to the years after Canaletto made his final return to Venice in 1756.
