EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 9: The Bridge and Market of the Rialto, Venice, from 'Views of Venice' (Magnificentiores Selectioresque Urbis Venetiarum Prospectus), 1741, by Michele Marieschi, is an exquisite etching that offers a captivating glimpse into the bustling heart of Venice during the 18th century. The image showcases the iconic Rialto Bridge, the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal, and the vibrant marketplace that once thrived beneath it. Michele Marieschi, an accomplished Italian artist, masterfully captured the essence of Venetian life in this second state of four succi print. The bridge, with its intricate S-shaped design and the gondolas gliding effortlessly beneath, serves as a striking backdrop to the bustling market scene. The figures of men and women, dressed in the fashion of the day, haggle over goods spread out on tables, while gondoliers maneuver their boats with practiced ease. The intricate details of the architecture, from the ornate facades of the buildings to the intricate balconies, are rendered with meticulous precision. This etching, part of the Magnificentiores Selectioresque Urbis Venetiarum Prospectus series, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Venice and the artistry of Michele Marieschi. It invites us to take a step back in time and explore the vibrant streets and waterways of this enchanting city. Today, this precious work of art can be found in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
