EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a vibrant procession taking place in Piazza San Marco, Venice during the 16th century. The scene is filled with grandeur as a formal parade moves gracefully in front of the iconic landmarks of San Geminiano Church, St. Mark's Basilica, and the Campanile. The artist Christoph Krieger skillfully depicts the architectural beauty of these structures within a decorative frame engraved by H. Catenacci and Fellmann. The woodblock engraving was created by F. Huyot after A. Racinet, who drew inspiration from an original woodcut by Christoph Krieger found in Cesare Vecellio's renowned work "Costumes anciens et modernes". This particular print is part of a collection housed in a private collection. The intricate details captured through this medium allow viewers to immerse themselves in the rich history and cultural heritage of Venice during this period. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that showcases the splendor and elegance associated with Venetian processions. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when tradition met opulence against the backdrop of one of Italy's most beloved cities. It reminds us that even centuries later, Venice continues to captivate our imaginations with its timeless beauty and allure.
