EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "View of Venice (Doges Palace, St. Marks Square)" takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Venice during the 15th century. Created through xylography by the talented artist Erhard Reuwich in 1486, this artwork is a page from Bernard de Breydenbach's travel book "peregrinatio in terram sanctam". The image showcases the iconic Doges Palace standing proudly against the backdrop of St. Marks Square. The intricate details captured by Reuwich transport us to an era where gondolas gracefully glided along Venetian canals and gondoliers skillfully maneuvered their boats. As we gaze at this historic scene, we are reminded of Venice's rich cultural heritage and its significance as a bustling center for trade and commerce during the Middle Ages. The architecture of the ducal palace stands as a testament to Venetian power and grandeur. Through this xylography piece, Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures the essence of medieval Venice - a city that continues to captivate visitors with its timeless charm. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind it and gain insight into life in one of Italy's most beloved cities centuries ago. Displayed within Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France, this artwork offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Venetian splendor while also celebrating
