Executed circa 1920, the view in this work has been previously identified as the Giudecca. However, as with many of Brangwyn's later Venetian works, the view is generic; the domed church is an unknown building, although the campanile may be that of San Samuele.

Adrian Bury, in reference to this painting, noted that Brangwyn 'remains a master of many moods and methods, and his oeuvre is monumental, his personality being writ large in everything he touched'.
The present work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné being prepared by Dr. Elizabeth Horner. We are grateful for her help in preparing this catalogue entry.
