I can't tell you at The Wallace Collection how much I enjoy all of your videos. You open the world to so many who will never get to see it in person.
Another wonderful video ❤️❤️
Thank you Dr Packer and thank you The Wallace collection for opening up to the world with those masterpieces and the insights in an online version... Please continue to do so!
A very enjoyable overview. We're so familiar with Canaletto's Venice that we're apt to take it for granted in much the same way we used to with Vivaldi who was a contemporary of Canaletto. Vivaldi's music is performed with such freshness and vigour today that it absolutely illuminates the city. I think Canaletto does the same, particularly the fine examples displayed at the Wallace. Thank you Dr Packer.
What sets Venics apart from other Italian cities is its eastern flavor. It feels very Byzantine, Levantine, and Italian at the same time.
This makes sense since the Venetians played the role of intermediaries between Western Europe, Constantinople, Egypt, and Syria. They were great merchants, craftsmen, and bankers.
Thank You!
I Love, Venice I have visited Venice twice.. The Doge Palace St Marcs basilica and the square, The grand canal, the Rialto bridge, and so on
