    Rome: Pannini, van Wittel and the turn to the veduta

    In Rome Canal comes to know the work of the vedutista Giovanni Paolo Pannini and begins to paint views of Venice; his love of landscape painting grows stronger through contacts with the Dutch artists working in Rome, in particular Gaspar van Wittel. Soon he probably realises that the conventions of stage design stand in the way of his natural gift.

    The association with Joseph Smith begins

    Sometime before 1728 Canaletto begins his association with Joseph Smith, an English businessman and collector living in Venice, who is appointed British Consul there in 1744; Smith will become the artist's principal agent and patron.

  6. c. 1729 – 1735

    Smith as agent: a “market of taste” for the Venetian veduta

    Joseph Smith — a banker, art dealer and later British consul in Venice — creates a “market of taste” for the Venetian veduta among British aristocrats touring Italy and, as Canaletto's commercial agent from about 1729 to 1735, in effect controls the artist's work to the benefit of them both. Among the young painter's buyers is also the Prince of Liechtenstein.
