Vienna, Panorama from Palais Kaunitz (detail)

by BELLOTTO, Bernardo, Oil on canvas

Similar size and construction authorize the assumption that the picture may have been one of the series of Vienna residences and palaces painted by Bellotto for Maria Theresa in Vienna in 1759-60. The arrangement and the wide, sunny stretch of panorama, with the garden and the characteristic portrait figures in the foreground, are reminiscent of the vedute of the Belvedere, Schlosshof and other familiar Viennese sights.
