EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ceramic sculpture, believed to be a possible portrait of the renowned Italian explorer Giovanni Da Verrazzano. Created by the Italian School in the 17th century, this glazed and unglazed ceramic masterpiece measures an impressive 61x47.6x24.8 cm and is currently housed in the esteemed collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. Giovanni Da Verrazzano, a Florentine explorer sailing under the French flag, holds great historical significance as he was credited with being the first European to lay eyes upon both New York and Narragansett bays. This extraordinary sculpture captures his likeness with intricate details such as his distinguished feathered hat, well-groomed beard, and intense gaze. The artist's skillful craftsmanship brings forth an air of authority and wisdom that resonates through this bust-like representation of Verrazzano. The use of ceramics adds depth and texture to this artwork while preserving its timeless beauty. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to an era when exploration was at its peak. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only Verrazzano's significant contributions but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and our relentless pursuit of discovery throughout history.
