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.

This exhibition of decorative and applied arts from the collection of the State Hermitage Museum (one of the largest museums in the world) tells the story of the miraculous metamorphoses of seashells in works by Russian and foreign artists from the 16th to 21st centuries. The exhibition features over 30 items, including small compositions and decorative objects. Some incorporate real seashells, such as nautilus shells, spondylus shells, turbo marmoratus shells, and so on. In others, the artists rethink the shape and form of natural shells in objects made of different materials. The oldest item on display is a French goblet made in the mid- to second half of the 16th century.
