EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a small metier in action: lighting lamps. The artwork, a watercolour drawing and ink from a manuscript by Jan van Grevenbroeck (or Giovanni Grevembroch), takes us back to 18th century Venice, where this scene unfolds. Displayed at the Correr Museum in Venice, Italy, it offers a glimpse into the daily life of street tradespeople during that era. The image depicts a human figure engaged in the laborious task of lighting lamps. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every stroke captures the essence of this street trade. The scale of the drawing allows us to appreciate both the intricate workmanship and the overall atmosphere surrounding this profession. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully presents us with an exquisite piece that not only highlights historical significance but also celebrates artistic talent. This artwork reminds us of how everyday activities can be transformed into works of art when observed through an artist's lens. As we admire this mesmerizing composition, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one aspect of Venetian life during the 18th century. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane tasks hold beauty and value worthy of preservation and appreciation for generations to come.
