"Festa della Sensa in Piazza San Marco" is a historical painting by the Venetian artist Antonio Sandi, which captures the essence of the traditional Venetian festival known as the "Festa della Sensa." This annual event, which dates back to the times of the Republic of Venice, celebrates the city's intimate relationship with the sea. The painting, created in the 18th century, depicts the vibrant festivities that take place in the Piazza San Marco, the principal public square of Venice, known for its iconic basilica and campanile.

Antonio Sandi, an 18th-century painter, was known for his detailed and lively representations of Venetian life and festivities. In "Festa della Sensa in Piazza San Marco," Sandi meticulously illustrates the pomp and ceremony of the Sensa, which includes the symbolic marriage of Venice to the sea. This ceremony, known as "Sposalizio del Mare," involved the Doge of Venice tossing a consecrated ring into the Adriatic Sea to signify Venice's dominion over the waters and its maritime prowess.

The painting is a rich tableau of the period, showcasing the architectural grandeur of the Piazza San Marco, with its Renaissance and Byzantine structures, and the grand procession of the Doge and other dignitaries. The artwork is imbued with the festive atmosphere of the day, featuring boats, gondolas, and the Venetian populace, all rendered with precise detail and a keen sense of movement and color.

As a historical record, Sandi's painting is invaluable for its depiction of Venetian culture and the traditional practices that were central to the identity of the Republic. It serves as a visual document of the period's social and political life, as well as an example of the artistic style prevalent in Venice during the 18th century. The "Festa della Sensa in Piazza San Marco" remains an important work for both art historians and those interested in the cultural heritage of Venice.
