Schöfft’s period in Rome and Venice indicates the date of View of "Venice (Canal Grande)" and its companion piece "View of Venice (Palazzo Grassi)" during this time or shortly after. His concern is to capture specific ambiences, showing the Venetian architecture on the Canal Grande by day and by night.
