brief title

A curator hangs an unknown art canvas painting on a gallery wall in the Royal Academy (RA) for its 'The Glory of Venice: Art in the Eighteenth Century' exhibition, a collection of important works of art by Italian artists such as Tiepolo, Canaletto, Piranesi, Piazzetta, and Guardi. In the privacy of the closed gallery, the official from the RA is carefully aligning the artwork and ensuring it is straight and presentable days before the general public is allowed to see these renaissance art treasures. Polished wooden parquet flooring is protected by blocks that support the weight of each work of priceless art and crates containing other paintings imported from their Italian owners await opening and hanging themselves.
