This was in part because, later in his career and when his name was established, Canaletto used his workshop assistants to complete routine tasks involved in the creation of his paintings, which allowed him the time to add his own unique touch later on.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis subject however was created by the artist when he was at the very height of his powers during his mature Venetian period in the early to mid 1730s. Earlier in his career, he was still learning his craft; later on, many of his paintings were obviously created in conjunction with his assistants. This view falls right in the middle; being created by an artist at his peak but painted in his own hand. As such, the original was sold at Christie's in London as long ago as 1992 for a price of approximately £1,300,000, or $2,500,000.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMost of Canaletto's surviving works in private hands are actually held in the United Kingdom, having been bought up by aristocratic patrons during their Grand Tours. Just as an example, 22 Canalettos were collected by the Dukes of Bedford alone for their ancestral home at Woburn Abbey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","brand":"ANTONIO CANALETTO (Italian, 1697-1768)","offers":[{"title":"Paper 15x30 inches","offer_id":55616585367894,"sku":"V26ACCamp-21989","price":63.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paper 15x30 inches FRAMED","offer_id":55616585400662,"sku":"V26ACCampF-21989","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas 15x30 inches","offer_id":55616585433430,"sku":"V26ACCampC-21989","price":180.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas 15x30 inches FRAMED","offer_id":55616585466198,"sku":"V26ACCampCF-21989","price":270.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1048\/3050\/1206\/files\/canaletto_20grand_20canal_20campo_20LG_a08cdf98-64e4-42d8-aca7-962f0b39ca8f.jpg?v=1791279707","url":"https:\/\/marineartists.co.uk\/products\/21989","provider":"Marine Artists","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
