EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of "The Arrival of Henri III of France in the Lido of Venice on 8 July 1574". Created by an Italian School artist in 1591, this etching showcases the grandeur and significance of Henri III's visit to Venice during his return from Poland to claim the French throne. In this image, we witness a magnificent scene unfolding before our eyes. The focal point is undoubtedly the impressive fleet of fifteen Venetian galleys, symbolizing the naval might and power of the Republic. These majestic ships stand tall as rowers propel them through calm waters with precision and strength. As our gaze wanders further into the composition, we are drawn to a triumphant arch with three openings designed by Palladio. Inspired by Rome's Arch of Septimus Severus, it serves as a regal backdrop for Henri III's arrival ceremony. This arch represents not only architectural brilliance but also signifies unity between two great nations. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as dignitaries await their esteemed guest at Venice's harbor. The Doge himself stands proudly aboard Bucintoro, ready to extend a warm reception to Henri III. It is evident that this momentous journey holds immense importance for both France and Venice. Through this remarkable photo print, we are transported back in time to witness history unfold before us – an extraordinary meeting between powerful leaders amidst stunning maritime surroundings.
