EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting scene of "High Water (Acqua alta) in San Marco Square, Venice, Veneto, Italy". The image showcases the unique charm and architectural grandeur of this iconic city during a high tide. As the water rises to meet the historic buildings that line the square, it creates a mesmerizing reflection that adds an ethereal quality to the photograph. In the foreground stands the magnificent Basilica di San Marco with its intricate Gothic design and golden mosaics glistening under the sunlight. To its left is Biblioteca Nationale Marciana, a stunning library steeped in history and culture. The Column of St Theodore and Column of Lion of Venice proudly stand tall amidst this watery spectacle. Venice's Piazza di San Marco comes alive as tourists navigate through this temporary aquatic landscape while admiring its beauty. This UNESCO World Heritage Site holds centuries worth of stories within its walls and has been a beloved tourist attraction for generations. Photographer Peter Fischer masterfully captures both the tranquility and drama brought about by acqua alta in this composition. With his keen eye for detail, he transports viewers to Southern Europe's gem where water becomes an integral part of everyday life. This awe-inspiring print serves as a reminder that even when faced with challenges such as high tides, Venice remains resilient in preserving its cultural heritage against all odds.
