Vedutismo
An Italian style of painting that shows very detailed, realistic views of cities and landscapes.
What is it?
Vedutismo (pronounced "veh-doo-TEEZ-mo") is a style of painting that became popular in the 1700s, especially in Venice. Artists like Canaletto and Bernardo Bellotto painted vedute — detailed views of cities, buildings, and landscapes. They used perspective to make the scenes look deep and realistic. Vedutismo is like taking a photograph with a paintbrush. Bellotto's painting of a castle landscape is an example of vedutismo.
Why it matters
Vedutismo gives us a window into the past. We can see what cities and countryside looked like before photography. It also shows how skilled artists were at creating realistic scenes.

风景画派
一种意大利绘画风格，描绘非常细致、逼真的城市和风景景色。
它是什么？
风景画派（读作“veh-doo-TEEZ-mo”）是一种在18世纪流行的绘画风格，尤其是在威尼斯。像卡纳莱托和贝尔纳多·贝洛托这样的艺术家绘制了vedute——城市、建筑和风景的细致景色。他们运用透视法使场景看起来深邃而逼真。风景画派就像用画笔拍照。贝洛托的城堡风景画就是风景画派的一个例子。
为什么重要
风景画派为我们打开了一扇了解过去的窗户。我们可以看到摄影出现之前的城市和乡村面貌。它也展示了艺术家在创作逼真场景方面的精湛技艺。
