Italian Rococo Era Painter, C.1721-1780 Italian painter and draughtsman. He was a view painter who worked in Italy and later at the courts of Dresden, Vienna, Munich and Warsaw. The nephew and almost certainly the pupil of Canaletto, outside Italy he signed his works de Canaletto and hence became known as Canaletto. He painted both topographical and imaginary views in a style independent of his uncle's, distinguished by cold colour and by the austere geometry of architectural masses.   Related Paintings of Bernardo Bellotto :. | Capriccio Veneto | Pirna Seen from the Right Bank of the Elbe | Ansicht von Wien, Platz vor der Universitat, von Sudost aus gesehen, mit der groben Aula der Universitat und Jesuitenkirche | Das kaiserliche Lustschlob Schlobhof, Ehrenhofseite | Kaunitz Palace and Park in Vienne |

He was nineteen when he immigrated with his family to the Province of South Carolina, whose General Assembly had provided land grants and transport funds to encourage European Protestants to settle in the colony. Simeon Thes was given 250 acres (1.0 km2) of land along the Edisto River in what was then Orangeburgh Township,
