In the artistic context of the 17th century, the Baroque style, of which Punta della Dogana is an iconic example, dominated the European scene. Rubens Santoro, though later, drew inspiration from this rich visual and emotional heritage to create works that blend realism and idealization. Venice, at that time, was experiencing a golden age of art where light and color were at the heart of painting, and Santoro masterfully captured this essence in his canvases.
