EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Venice in 1493, beautifully captured through a colored woodcut from the Nuremberg Chronicle. The 15th-century cityscape of Venice unfolds before our eyes, with its iconic landmarks standing proudly at the center - St Marks and the Campanile. The unknown creator has skillfully depicted this medieval masterpiece, showcasing the architectural marvels that have defined Venice for centuries. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era where ships gracefully sailed through Venetian waters, serving as a reminder of the city's rich maritime history. The lagoon surrounding Venice adds an ethereal touch to the landscape, enhancing its charm and allure. The inclusion of this woodcut in Selwyn Brinton's book "Venice - Past and Present" edited by Geoffrey Holme in 1925, further solidifies its significance as a historical artifact worth cherishing. It serves as a window into both the past and present of one of Italy's most enchanting cities. With vibrant colors adorning every detail, from towering cathedrals to bustling streets filled with life, this print captures not only physical structures but also evokes emotions tied to religion and spirituality during that period. It is a testament to how art can transcend time and connect us with different eras. This remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of Renaissance-era Venice while appreciating the craftsmanship behind such intricate woodcuts.
