Views of Venice: The Gates of the Arsenal

Michele Marieschi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a city square. The square has a tall flagpole in the center. The square is paved with cobblestones and there are people dressed in old-fashioned clothing walking around. There are two large buildings on either side of the square. The building on the left has a large gate with columns and statues on top. The building on the right is a row of connected buildings with many windows. In the background, there is a large stone tower with a ship next to it. The sky is cloudy. The scene appears to be a view of a European city, specifically a waterfront area. The title of the image is "The Gates of the Arsenal".
