EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Venice, capturing a mesmerizing view of San Giorgio Island from the iconic Piazza San Marco. The image showcases the exquisite architectural marvels that define this historic location. In the foreground, we are greeted by the majestic Bell Tower, standing tall and proud against the Venetian sky. Its elegant design reflects both eighteenth-century and Renaissance-Baroque styles, serving as a testament to Europe's rich artistic heritage spanning across centuries. As our gaze wanders further into the frame, we encounter an array of commemorative structures and political buildings that add depth and character to this bustling square. Among them is a magnificent basilica, exuding an aura of religious significance and Christian devotion. The landscape surrounding Piazza San Marco is equally breathtaking. The tranquil lagoons stretch out before us like shimmering mirrors reflecting Venetian life through ages past. An obelisk column rises proudly amidst this picturesque scene, adding another layer of historical charm to an already captivating vista. Dating back to 1900 approximately, this photograph immortalizes a moment frozen in time when Venice was at its prime as one of Europe's most influential cities during the first and second millenniums A. D. It serves as a window into Benedetto Buratti's artwork from 1791 which beautifully captures not only architecture but also emotions evoked by such grandeur. Pietro Bertoja skillfully preserves these elements within his lens; allowing us today to appreciate their timeless beauty while igniting our imagination with visions of Venetian splendor from days gone by.
