Canaletto, Bellotto and their Circle
Event Information
Description
Charles Beddington was at Christie's between 1983 and 1998, ultimately as head of the London Old Master Picture Department, and is well respected for his role as the pre-eminent scholar of Venetian view painting, and Canaletto in particular. The gallery is known for its strong academic background and for offering paintings that are either rediscoveries or fresh to the market.
Join Charles for a fascinating lunchtime discussion about their London Art Week exhibition 'Canaletto, Bellotto and their Circle'.
