Gezicht op ruïnes in een buitenwijk van Dresden met het Fürstenhof-paleis

Bernardo Bellotto, was an Italian urban landscape painter or vedutista, and printmaker in etching famous for his vedute of European cities – Dresden, Vienna, Turin, and Warsaw. He was the student and nephew of the renowned Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto, and sometimes used the latter's illustrious name, signing himself as Bernardo Canaletto. In Germany and Poland, Bellotto called himself by his uncle's name, Canaletto. This caused some confusion, however Bellotto's work is more sombre in color than Canaletto's and his depiction of clouds and shadows brings him closer to Dutch painting.
