Artist Radu Leon (b.1971) has led the course on Canaletto’s drawing techniques during the exhibition ‘Canaletto & Art of Venice’ at The Queen’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace in 2017, and completed a doctorate in History of Art in Venice in 2018. Leon shares his skill, connoisseurship, and passion for lesser-known media (silverpoint, hand-made pastels following old recipes, size tempera) with students around the world, from doctoral students in London or Venice, to pupils in underprivileged areas in Kenya.
