Bernardo Bellotto, pupil and nephew of Canaletto, had a highly successful international career. Canaletto, whose name sometimes illegally adopted, especially during his stay in Poland, was his uncle on his mother’s side and had trained the young artist for many years. By 1738, he was already a member of the Venician Painters’ Guild. Still under Canaletto’s guidance, the young Bellotto traveled extensively in Italy. He went to Rome, Florence, Turin, Milan and Verona. In each city Bernardo Bellotto left memorable images, giving a precocious demonstration of his ability to capture not only the architectural or natural features, but also the specific quality of the light in each place Bernardo Bellotto visited.

| After returning briefly to Venice, in the summer of 1747, he accepted an invitation from Augustus III, the Elector of Saxony, and moved to Dresden. During the ten years the artist spent there, he produced a remarkable series of wonderful views of the city and its surroundings. Bernardo Bellotto repeated these paintings for the Prime Minister, Count Brühl, who eventually sold his collection to Catherine II the Great into St. Petersburg. With the purchase of the collection, Catherine the Great bought many of his finest topographic works. The Old Market Square in Dresden, The New Market Square in Dresden, Pirna Seen from the Right Bank of the Elbe are not only convincing in and for themselves, but also remind us of what happened to all that beauty after Dresden was bombed to the ground in the Second World War. |

Antique painting artist Bernardo Bellotto had enormous success and
his reputation spread throughout the whole
of Central Europe. In 1758, the Empress
Maria-Teresa summoned him to Vienna, where
he painted views of the capital’s
Gothic and Baroque monuments. his next stop was Munich where, from 1761, Bernardo Bellotto worked for the Elector of Bavaria. After five years there he returned to Dresden. In 1764-1766, he was a teacher at the Dresden Academy. In late 1766, Bernardo Bellotto went to Warsaw. He had hoped eventually to reach St. Petersburg and work for Empress Catherine II but he stayed permanently in Warsaw at the urging of the recently crowned king, Stanislaus II Augustus Poniatowski. He views of Warsaw are nearly all collected in the city’s Royal Castle. Thanks to the fact that their poetic quality was combined with faultless accuracy, they were used as a draft for rebuilding Warsaw after its near-total destruction in the Second World War. |
