# Bernardo Bellotto

> He painted European capitals with such photographic precision that his canvases became blueprints — Warsaw used his views to rebuild after World War II. The confusion: he often signed his work "Canaletto," his uncle's name, blurring the line between homage and brand theft.

## Bio

Bernardo Bellotto was born around 1721 in Venice, nephew and student of Giovanni Antonio Canal — Canaletto, the veduta master. He learned the family trade of urban landscape painting, then carried it north, spending decades recording Dresden, Vienna, Turin, and Warsaw with an almost architectural exactness that suggests he worked from a camera obscura. In Germany and Poland he signed himself "Canaletto," trading on the famous name and sowing lasting confusion between his work and his uncle's. His palette ran darker, his clouds heavier, his shadows closer to Dutch painting than to Venice's shimmer. He died in Warsaw on 17 November 1780, having left a record so precise that centuries later, bombed cities would turn to his canvases as reconstruction guides.
