EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of The Church of Saints John and Paul in Venice, accompanied by the magnificent equestrian monument to Bartolomeo Colleoni. Taken around 1900, this print showcases a remarkable blend of Early Renaissance, Renaissance, and Renaissance-Baroque styles that have shaped Europe's artistic heritage. The church stands tall with its intricate architectural details and towering spires, exuding an aura of sacredness. Its facade displays exquisite craftsmanship that reflects the artistic brilliance of the time. Adjacent to it is the awe-inspiring equestrian monument dedicated to Bartolomeo Colleoni. This masterpiece was created between 1481 and 1488 by renowned artists De' Leopardi Alessandro and Verrocchio Andrea di Michele Cioni.
