Monet’s spectacular view of the Palazzo Ducale on the Grand Canal belongs to
the extraordinary series he completed in the fall of 1908 in Venice. Painted
from the south-east vantage of a floating pontoon, the scene depicts the Palace,
with its Byzantine fenestrations adorning the façade, alongside the Ponte della
Paglia and the prison building on the right. - art-Monet.com
