"The Bridge for the Feast of the Madonna della Salute 1720" is a notable painting by the Italian artist Luca Carlevaris, who is recognized as one of the precursors of the Venetian veduta genre, a style of detailed, large-scale paintings or prints of cityscapes. This particular work, created in 1720, captures the temporary bridge constructed across the Grand Canal in Venice for the annual Festa della Madonna della Salute, a religious festival held to give thanks for the city's deliverance from the plague.

The painting is a testament to Carlevaris's skill in architectural accuracy and his ability to depict the vibrancy of Venetian society. It showcases a bustling scene filled with numerous figures, boats, and the grandeur of the city's architecture, all centered around the temporary structure that allowed pilgrims to visit the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute for the feast day. The bridge itself, made of boats lashed together and topped with wooden planks, is a focal point of the composition, symbolizing both the ingenuity of Venetian engineering and the communal spirit of the festival.

Carlevaris's work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, providing insight into the customs and urban landscape of 18th-century Venice. "The Bridge for the Feast of the Madonna della Salute 1720" is a prime example of Carlevaris's contribution to the veduta genre, preceding and influencing the work of his more famous successor, Canaletto. The painting is held in high regard for its detailed portrayal of the city's architecture and festivities, and it remains an important cultural artifact that captures the essence of Venetian life during a significant event in the city's religious calendar.
