Tucked inside the palazzo walls, the courtyard centers on an old carved wellhead set on worn flagstones. A climbing rose with pale blush flowers covers the warm brick and plaster, green shutters frame a latticed window, and an archway leads back to a lantern, a stair and a dark green door. Leaves overhead break the sunlight into a soft, shifting pattern.

The enclosed, sheltered feeling of the scene makes it a lovely choice for a dining room or a reading corner in the living room. It belongs to the Venetian Quiet collection, nine paintings of a faded canal district and its hidden corners, and it pairs well with The Shuttered Balcony and Passage to the Canal.
