EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching by Otto Henry Bacher, titled 'San Marco' (circa 1880/1882), invites us to step back in time and explore the rich history of St. Mark's Cathedral in Venice, Italy. The intricate details of the 19th-century architectural masterpiece are beautifully rendered, with the grand facade of the cathedral towering over the modest figures of a woman and a child in the foreground. The woman, dressed in traditional Italian clothing, kneels in reverence before the Madonna and Child, her back turned to the viewer. She wears a long, flowing shawl draped over her shoulders, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The background is filled with the hustle and bustle of the bustling Italian marketplace, with people clad in various fashions of the era going about their daily business. This etching, which measures approximately 11 x 8 inches and is etched in black on cream laid paper, is a testament to the enduring appeal of European art and the rich cultural heritage it represents. It is a rare and valuable addition to any art collection, and a beautiful reminder of the artistic and religious traditions that have shaped our world. The Art Institute of Chicago, one of the oldest and most renowned art museums in the United States, is home to this impressive work by Otto Henry Bacher. Bacher, a prolific artist and etcher, was known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with remarkable skill. This etching is a prime example of his talent and a must-see for any art lover or history buff.
