The Piazzetta
Although Canaletto's views appear to be faithful to reality, he often moved buildings around and manipulated the perspectives to create a better composition. In both these drawings, Canaletto opened out the space between two monumental columns in the Piazzetta (‘little Piazza’), allowing a view to the churches in the distance.
