Johann or Giovanni Richter (Stockholm 1665 – Venice 1745), attributed Venice, view of the Grand Canal in front of the church of San Simeon Piccolo Oil on canvas 46 x 70.5 cm Work published in F. Pedrocco, *Il Settecento a Venezia. I Vedutisti*, Milan 2001, p. 64 After an initial apprenticeship in his homeland, Johann left Sweden in 1697 and settled in Venice around 1710. He joined the studio of Luca Carlevarijs, whose style he followed for the rest of his life. By around 1730, he was already an established painter, both with the local public and in the thriving English market. He was rediscovered in the early 20th century, and as his catalog was updated over time, numerous paintings previously attributed to Carlevarijs came to be attributed to him. Today, in fact, critics praise the artistic merits of this Swedish painter—once believed to be merely a modest follower of his Venetian master—so much so that his name appears among the pantheon of great 18th-century Venetian landscape painters alongside Canaletto, Bellotto, Marieschi, Guardi, and, of course, his master and mentor Luca Carlevarjis.
