EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, created by Thomas Bowles in 1745, showcases the breathtaking view of Piazza San Marco in Venice. The image transports us back in time to the 18th century, where we can marvel at the architectural grandeur of this iconic square. At the heart of the composition lies the magnificent Doge's Palace, or Palazzo Ducale di Venezia, with its intricate facade adorned with arches, columns, and intricate designs. The Ducal Palace, a symbol of Venetian power and wealth, stands proudly along the Grand Canal, the city's primary waterway. To the left, the Basilica di San Marco, or St. Mark's Basilica, dominates the scene with its striking Byzantine architecture and vibrant colors. The colonnades surrounding the square create a sense of unity and harmony, while the keystone arches add a touch of elegance and sophistication. The image also captures the bustling activity of the square, with people going about their daily business, boats navigating the Grand Canal, and merchants engaging in trade. The vanishing point of the perspective draws our eyes deep into the scene, inviting us to explore the rich history and culture of this remarkable city. Thomas Bowles, an English engraver, skillfully captured the essence of Venice in this etching, providing us with a valuable glimpse into the past. This work is now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and continues to inspire awe and wonder in viewers from around the world.
