里瓦·德利·斯齐亚沃内，威尼斯: 水节

This is one of a pair of paintings of Venetian festivals which were probably produced in the mid-1840s. This painting is not finished and was not exhibited. Turner may have painted it over another picture, laying his pigment on very thickly in order to obscure the painting underneath. Turner came to prefer using a shallow landscape format for his late Venetian subjects.
