The great Venetian artist Canaletto spent ten years living in London producing wonderful landscapes of the city and its surrounds. In this lecture, we explore his time in the capital and look at how his style changed during his long visit. We look at some of the work he produced and explore how the views he captured have changed over the centuries.

Mr Nick Salmond
After studying Physics at Bristol University I joined the BBC where I worked for over thirty years. Working mainly in news I helped cover some of the great events of our time. I led the team moving BBC World News into central London in 2013. In 2017 I trained as a London Blue Badge Tourist Guide, qualifying in 2019 and winning the Katrine Prince Award as Guide of the Year. During the COVID lockdown, I led the guide's media team, creating several virtual talks on social media, featuring over 50 London Guides. I am a lecturer for the new Guide’s Training course.
