''Return of the Bucentaurn to the Molo on Ascension Day'' is a renowned painting by the Venetian artist Giovanni Antonio Canal, better known as Canaletto. This work, created in the 18th century, depicts the annual ceremonial return of the Doge and the Venetian government officials aboard the Bucintoro, the state barge, to the Molo (the main waterfront of Venice) on Ascension Day. The event was one of the most significant and opulent in the Venetian calendar, celebrating the marriage of Venice to the sea, a tradition symbolizing the maritime dominion and commercial power of the Republic of Venice.

Canaletto, famed for his vedute—highly detailed, large-scale paintings of cityscapes—captured this vibrant scene with his characteristic precision and atmospheric perspective. The painting showcases the grandeur of the Venetian architecture and the bustling activity of the city's inhabitants and visitors during the festival. The artist's meticulous attention to the effects of light and his ability to render the reflective qualities of water contribute to the painting's sense of realism and vitality.

The artwork is a testament to Canaletto's skill in architectural painting and his acute observation of social customs and ceremonial pomp. It serves as an important historical record of the cultural life of Venice in the 18th century, as well as an example of the artist's significant contribution to the vedute genre. ''Return of the Bucentaurn to the Molo on Ascension Day'' is not only celebrated for its artistic excellence but also for providing insight into the pageantry and spectacle of the Venetian Republic's heyday.
