AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The artwork depicts an evocative Venetian view with gondolas moored beneath a stone bridge, framed by historic architecture. The scene is dominated by warm tones—ambers and browns—giving the image a nocturnal and intimate character.
The light reflects off the water, creating luminous vibrations that animate the composition, while the gondolas, silent protagonists, become a symbol of the eternal city. A work of great narrative power and chromatic refinement.
