Quay Chioggia 2. (2009)Oil painting by Leo Baxiner

Beautiful city landscape with channels and gondola. Painting oil on canvas, palette knife.
Poetic atmosphere of Italy, romantic canals and streets.....
Chioggia the small satellite of Venice located in 30 km from the city of the architectural museum under the open sky which is well-known for the channels. Chioggia's architecture more modest, but kept spirit of the Venetian classical Italy. The same channels, the same gondolas, shabby walls of houses, a smell of the sea and the most tasty food fill all city. And all this in a combination gives rise to the image of the unforgettable Italy loved by all of us.
The central part of composition is the gondola cutting solemn waters of the channel which are filled with a modulation of reflections. At the viewer the feeling is created as though he from the bridge watches this solemnly floating boat, being a participant of this picture. The channel covered by an easy haze mysteriously covers the waking-up city. All look causes admiration of Italy and proud tranquility of this great architecture.
