| Exhibition history |
2010: acquired by English: The View was very expensive when published and most examples were probably displayed on walls. Only 13 examples of the original edition are still known. It was the first to change hands in 55 years. The view is one of three examples in America. |

| Notes |
English: one of twelve known impressions of the first state of the woodcut, showing the Campanile in Piazza San Marco with the temporary flat roof after a fire in 1489. In the second state the block was altered to take account of the restoration work done in 1511-4 and the date 1500 ("MD") was removed. The original blocks are in the Correr Museum in Venice. Each sheet is so big that the individual sheets of paper were the largest ever produced in Europe at that time |
