There is probably no person on earth who has not heard of the extraordinary beauty of Venice. The city is associated with a myriad of timeless symbols – carnivals, palazzos, the flooded Piazza San Marco, the picture-postcard Rialto Bridge, fans and masks.
A veduto (“view” in Italian) is a painting which depicts an everyday cityscape. By the mid-18th century, Venice had become the recognized centre of vedute painting.
At the head of the Venetian school of vedutisti was Giovanni Antonio Canal, commonly known as Canaletto. His work came to serve as a paragon for successive generations of cityscape painters. Among those to be influenced by Canaletto’s work were the talented artists Francesco Guardi and Michele Marieschi. The exhibition will provide participants and guests of the Eastern Economic Forum with the chance to view one of the museum collections of the Intesa Sanpaolo Italian banking group.

In days gone by, Vladivostok was considered to have the best sea fortress in the world. But that had not always been the case. After the vast territories of the east became part of Russia, it became essential to ensure that they were developed and protected. The remote location of these new lands from the centre of the empire was a key factor. This tour will tell the story of the creation of Vladivostok Fortress, of the people who dedicated themselves to it, and of the difficulties they had to overcome in order to build a magnificent fortification on the Pacific coast.

There is probably no person on earth who has not heard of the extraordinary beauty of Venice. The city is associated with a myriad of timeless symbols – carnivals, palazzos, the flooded Piazza San Marco, the picture-postcard Rialto Bridge, fans and masks.
A veduto (“view” in Italian) is a painting which depicts an everyday cityscape. By the mid-18th century, Venice had become the recognized centre of vedute painting.
At the head of the Venetian school of vedutisti was Giovanni Antonio Canal, commonly known as Canaletto. His work came to serve as a paragon for successive generations of cityscape painters. Among those to be influenced by Canaletto’s work were the talented artists Francesco Guardi and Michele Marieschi. The exhibition will provide participants and guests of the Eastern Economic Forum with the chance to view one of the museum collections of the Intesa Sanpaolo Italian banking group.

A veduto (“view” in Italian) is a painting which depicts an everyday cityscape. By the mid-18th century, Venice had become the recognized centre of vedute painting.
At the head of the Venetian school of vedutisti was Giovanni Antonio Canal, commonly known as Canaletto. His work came to serve as a paragon for successive generations of cityscape painters.
