watercolor on paper
45.7 x 30.5 cm.  (18 x 12 in.)
inscribed with best wishes to . . .Cassels Brown, l.l.

Sargent did numerous paintings of side canals over the course of his verious trips. This one we see is done in a gondola, as many of them were. A stone bridge is in the distance and such a delightful sense of the shimmering water.
