"Dresden from the Right Bank of the Elbe below the Augustus Bridge" is a renowned landscape painting by the Italian artist Giovanni Antonio Canal, better known as Canaletto. This work is part of a series of views of the city of Dresden that Canaletto painted during his stay in Germany between 1747 and 1756. Commissioned by Augustus III of Poland, the Elector of Saxony, these paintings were intended to showcase the splendor and beauty of the Saxon capital.

The painting captures a panoramic view of Dresden from the right bank of the Elbe River, with the Augustus Bridge prominently featured in the foreground. This bridge, named after its commissioner Augustus the Strong, was an important symbol of the city's architectural and engineering achievements. Canaletto's depiction is celebrated for its meticulous detail, atmospheric perspective, and the play of light across the urban landscape, which was a hallmark of his work.

Canaletto's Dresden paintings are significant for their historical value as well as their artistic merit. They provide a vivid portrayal of the city before the extensive damage it suffered during the Seven Years' War and later during World War II. "Dresden from the Right Bank of the Elbe below the Augustus Bridge" is not only a masterpiece of vedute (view painting) but also an important document of 18th-century urban design and architecture.

The painting is characterized by Canaletto's exceptional skill in rendering architectural accuracy and his use of camera obscura techniques to achieve precise perspective. His work on the Dresden series marked a departure from his more famous Venetian scenes, yet it continued to reflect his interest in depicting the grandeur of European cities. Today, this painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered one of the finest examples of Canaletto's work outside of Italy, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural and artistic exchange between Italy and the German states during the Baroque period.
