EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the timeless beauty of Venice's Doges' Palace, this stunning print transports us back to the grandeur of the 15th and 16th centuries. The image showcases the magnificent east facade of the palace, adorned with intricate architectural details that speak volumes about its historical significance. On the left side of the photograph, we are greeted by Scala dei Giganti, or giants' staircase, a majestic feature that commands attention. Its imposing presence is complemented by the elegant side facade of Arco Foscari, which adds depth and character to this enchanting courtyard view. Dating back to 1886, this artwork was expertly captured by photographers Lombardo Pietro and Rizzo Antonio. Their keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every element within this composition – from windows and porticos to courtyards and structures. Each component tells a story about Venice's rich history as a hub for politics, law enforcement, government offices, museums, galleries and intellectual pursuits. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Harry C. Ellis from Alinari collection, it becomes evident that it is not just an ordinary photograph but rather a testament to human ingenuity in architecture and design. It reminds us how art can transcend time itself. This print serves as an invitation for viewers to explore Venice's cultural heritage through its iconic landmarks like Doges' Palace. It encourages us to delve into our own imagination as we envision what life might have been like during those ancient times when these walls witnessed political power struggles unfold.
