Canaletto: A Retrospective
New York: Abrams, 1989.
First printing.
This is the catalog of a huge show of Canaletto's work at the Metropolitan Museum, the first retrospective of his work in America.
388 pages with 180 illustrations (167 in color).
Although he was sometimes condemned in his lifetime as a mere view painter, Canaletto achieved lasting success, particularly with the English aristocracy, whose collections form a large part of the show.
