Vincent Canadé (1879 – 1961) was an American artist, born in San Giorgio Albanese, Italy. He was active during the 1920s and 1930s and is known especially for his landscapes. His work, which also includes portraits and still lifes, is held in the collections of over 20 museums, including the Hirshhorn Museum, the National Museum of American Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Phillips Collection. His artwork was published in The Dial (July 1925) and other publications. On April 10, 1927, The New York Times reviewed: Vincent Canadé has introduced a 20th-century reflection of the dark smile that glows eternally in the painting of the Middle Ages into his latest paintings (at the Weyhe Galleries) of elemental landscapes and living trees and faces. During the 1930s, he lived in Greenwich Village. He had previously resided in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. Vincent and Josephine Picciulo Canadé had six children: sons Eugene, George and Vincent; and daughters Laura Canade, who married noted curator and art dealer Carl Zigrosser, Celia Canade Raupp and Florence Canade Lambert. Vincent Canadé died in 1961 in New York City. His work today is represented by the Spanierman Gallery...

Venetian, 1697 - 1768

Giovanni Antonio Canal (18 October 1697 – 19 April 1768), commonly known as Canaletto (Italian: [kanaˈletto]), was an Italian painter from the Republic of Venice, considered an important member of the 18th-century Venetian school. Painter of cityscapes or vedute, of Venice, Rome, and London, he also painted imaginary views (referred to as capricci), although the demarcation in his works between the real and the imaginary is never quite clearcut. He was further an important printmaker using the etching technique. In the period from 1746 to 1756, he worked in England, where he painted many views of London and other sites, including Warwick Castle and Alnwick Castle. He was highly successful in England, thanks to the British merchant and connoisseur Joseph "Consul" Smith, whose large collection of Canaletto's works was sold to King George III in 1762.
