About this work

A watercolour-style scene shows richly dressed figures in red robes and a dark cloak gathered beneath a colonnaded arcade, with two gondolas drifting on a narrow channel of water toward an open view of the lagoon. The figures stand on a pale stone quay while gondoliers in red caps and a green jacket steer the boats, and a distant church dome appears under a broad, cloudy sky. This work by James Holland is dated 1844 and is held by Wikimedia Commons.
