EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting city of Venice, capturing a mesmerizing view of the Burano canal and the island of Torcello. Taken in 1968 by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco, this landscape seascape immerses us in the beauty and charm that defines Venice. The image showcases a breathtaking aerial perspective, offering a birds-eye view of this iconic Italian city. From above, we witness the intricate network of canals winding through Venetian streets like veins carrying lifeblood. The Burano canal takes center stage as it gracefully meanders through colorful buildings with their vibrant facades reflecting on its shimmering waters. In the distance lies the island of Torcello, shrouded in an air of mystery and history. Its ancient ruins stand as testaments to centuries gone by when it was once a flourishing hub within these lagoons. This juxtaposition between bustling urban life and serene island solitude creates a sense of harmony unique to Venice. The composition is masterfully captured; every detail meticulously preserved by Quilici's lens. The play between light and shadow adds depth to each element present – from gondolas gliding along tranquil canals to distant silhouettes dotting the horizon. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print from Alinari, our senses are awakened with visions of Venetian architecture rising majestically against azure skies while gentle sea breezes carry whispers from afar. It serves as an invitation for us to explore further into this timeless city where artistry meets nature at every turn.
