Description
The city of Venice has always provided an almost irresistible lure for both writers and artists. Henry James loved it, as did Ruskin, Browning, Pound, and Brodsky. For artists, it has been a compulsory magnet since the time of Bellini and Canaletto. This title presents a tour of Venice from an artist's perspective.
Adam Van Doren is a former Visiting Artist at the American Academy in Rome. He has exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery, Washington D.C. and the Addison Gallery of American Art among, others.
“Architect and artist Van Doren offers a love letter to Venice in this elegant and slender volume, and he sings his praise to the city through majestic prose and 23 beautiful watercolor paintings of Venice.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review
“Van Doren pulls off the not-inconsequential feat of conjuring some of the best-known views of the world with fresh eyes.”—The Wall Street Journal
