About this work

Capriccio with Ruins by Giovanni Antonio Canal, dated 1730, shows an imaginary landscape of classical architectural fragments. Tall Corinthian columns and a broken arch frame a river crossed by a stone bridge, with a domed temple and additional ruins receding into the distance. Small figures move among the stones and vegetation under a partly cloudy sky.
