Resumo:This document displays the sequence of slides that complemented the lecture that was given at the conference “The camera obscura and drawing. In the light of Canaletto”, at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia on April 13, 2022, examining the sketchbook from Antonio Canal (1697-1768) called Canaletto, held by the Gallerie dell'Accademia di Venezia, also known as the Quaderno Cagnola, and its connections with drawings made with a camera obscura. The conference occurred from an invitation by Director of the Accademia, Professor Ricardo Caldura and Professor António Fiengo, as result of an Erasmus+ mission (KA1 - Staff mobility for teaching and training activities, ref. EP-KA1-HE-Staff-2019), with the hosting of Professor Matteo Alemanno. The mission included a conference and a workshop with experimental exercises of drawing with a camera obscura in sites of Venice, as well as a study residency for fieldwork related to our own research project "Canaletto's Sketchbook". The project investigates the possibility of the use of this optical device in Canaletto's working process, claimed by many authors, a hypothesis that we sustain throughout a methodological approach that combine visual reconstruction of the 16 veduta´s sites present in the Quaderno with new insights taken from experimental applied drawings exercises made with this device and which we seek to highlight in this conference.
