AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Ferdinando Silvani (Italian, 1823-1899)
"Venice" oil on panel 19.5x30.5 cm signed bottom right.
33x44 cm with the frame.
The painting is in its original condition and requires cleaning.
The frame is original and to be restored or replaced.
The frame shown in the photo is included for guidance and is not an integral part of the artwork. Any damage to the frame will not constitute a valid reason for complaint or for cancellation of the order.

Ferdinando Silvani attended the Ducal Academy of Parma where he received a solid training in drawing before dedicating himself to engraving. He also trained in chalcography, notably with Paolo Toschi, with whom he collaborated on the etching translation of the works of Correggio and Parmigianino. Silvani stayed long in Venice, where he created works of great beauty, representing splendid views of the lagoon city. On a small panel, a typical portal is reflected in the calm waters of the lagoon; a boat is lulled by a clear light that the painter Silvani, with a swift brushstroke, was able to render.
