Franz Alt, who came from a family of painters, devoted his life to watercoloured views of cities and landscapes, which he perfected on his numerous journeys through Central and Southern Europe. With his small-format vedute of picturesque places, the extremely productive artist aroused the interest of many courtly collectors of his time. In October 1885, Franz Alt stayed in northern Italy, as evidenced by another privately owned watercolour, dated twenty days after this one, depicting a paddle steamer against the background of the church of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice.

H. 19,2,
Der aus einer Malerfamilie stammende Franz Alt widmete sich zeitlebens aquarellierten Stadt- und Landschaftsansichten, die er auf seinen zahlreichen Reisen durch Mittel- und Südeuropa perfektionierte. Der überaus produktive Künstler erregte mit seinen kleinformatigen Veduten pittoresker Orte das Interesse vieler höfischer Sammler seiner Zeit. Im Oktober 1885 hielt sich Franz Alt in Oberitalien auf, wovon ein weiteres in Privatbesitz befindliches Aquarell zeugt, das zwanzig Tage nach dem vorliegenden datiert wurde und einen Raddampfer vor dem Hintergrund der Kirche San Giorgio Maggiore in Venedig darstellt.
