this atmospheric gouache of San Giorgio Maggiore was executed as an independent work of art in its own right, to be sold to collectors and grand tourists. Like many such works by Bison it is painted on cardboard. The artist seems to have prepared the cardboard with a coloured ground to smooth the surface and achieve vibrant colouring.
