Object history "There is only one portrait of Canaletto that can be accepted as fully authentic. This is the engraving which appears with a portrait of Visentini as the frontispiece of the Prospectus Magni Canalis Venetiarum of 1735, and of the enlarged editions ( Urbis Venetiarum Prospectus Celebriores) of 1742 and 1751. Canaletto is seen head shoulders, within an oval enclosed by a carved frame ornamented with flowers and foliage, and inscribed below the portrait Antonius Canal/ Origine Civis/ Venetus. At the bottom of the frame is a shield with a chevron, The Canal coats of arms. In the lower left margin is the inscription Ex Monochromate Io. Bapt. Piazzetta; and lower right, Antonio Visentini Inv. Del. et Sculp. From the date of the first publication of the engraving, Canaletto as represented cannot be more then thirty-eight; and since there is evidence of that the plates for the Prospectus Magni Canalis were ready in 1730, he may well not be much more then thirty." - Constable, W. G. (1962). Canaletto (Vol. I). Oxford, England: Oxford University Press; Metropolitan

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
