Person
Robertson, WilliamNotes
In correspondence from W.R. Coe to Charles of London he states that a work with a scene of Venice was done by his uncle William Robertson. This does not appear to be the same style as his uncle's work. However, in 1930 the work is attributed to (Francesco) Guardi under restoration by F.V. Syracuse. Further research required but unlikely this work is painted by Guardi (MP 2025)Create Date
