Artists at San Rocco
San Rocco. Right near the Frari, in the Dorsoduro Sestiere. The Church, on the right of the picture, the Scuola on the left. The scuola was built from 1485, some years after the 1477 plague epidemic. As in many other places in Venice, artists like to gather here to imortalize this perfect venetian Renaissance architecture on their sketchbooks.

I can understand that. Venice must be a dream for talented painters.
I like the perspective, the natural distribution of people in the picture. And the whites-greys play. Great.
What a remarkable place to rest and sketch. Lucky artists! It looks in great condition and must be lovingly cared for by the citizens.
