Unlike painting, printmaking allowed Canaletto to separate and combine images at his own discretion. He etched the outer two vignettes on a single plate before cutting it in two (for the other half, see 1922.1381.12). Then he reversed their order and positioned a third, unrelated segment between them (1922.1381.11). Besides reusing fragments of larger plates, these mysterious composite prints appear to have little in common beyond the archways and statues they contain.
