ANTONIO DA CANAL, IL CANALETTO S. Giustina in Prà della Vale e Prà della Valle.
Two etchings, circa 1740. Both approximately 298x428 mm; 11 3/4x17 inches, both with full margins. Both in the second state (of 2), with the numbers lower right. Both very good impressions, scarce with the pair.
According to Bromberg, "No record exists of their ever having been printed as one undivided plate. The partial outline of a man's coat printed beyond the right borderline of S. Giustina in Prà della Vale, repeated on the left of Prà della Valle, seems to confirm the belief that the two etchings were intended to be joined after printing." DeVesme 8 and 9; Bromberg 7 and 8.
