From one of the world’s largest art collections, The Royal Collection, comes the remarkable story of Canaletto and the city he shared with millions through his art.
With exclusive access to the highly regarded exhibition at The Queen’s Gallery, this film opens the doors to London’s Buckingham Palace, and Windsor Castle, taking audiences through the squares and canals of Venice that Canaletto immortalised.

Including expert commentary and insights from curators of The Royal Collection, the film also reveals the intriguing story of how Canaletto’s works came to hold pride of place in the Queen’s own Picture Gallery.
