Venice in the morning mist or late at night; both are unsurpassed. And you've captured the "morning mist" masterfully. Let's see what you can do about "night" and its special magic.
You and Turner! I think you have captured the special lurking Venetian quality of the Grand Canal in the fog and quiet.
Having lived in northern Italy for ten years, I'd love to see what you do with Lombardy!
This is just beautiful, Julian! I am a sucker for misty scenes, and you did a marvellous job.
I love that slash of bright blue - a perfect touch amidst all the misty greys. Another color wouldn't have been as effective, I'm sure.

What struck me about this painting was its peace. I think that it is one of your best, Julian, as was the previous "Reflections on a Pond" that has, now that I think about it, a double meaning. I am glad that you and Ruth and Louis are having such a splendid vacation. I hope that you might do a print of this one.
