EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the Roaring Twenties, as depicted in this evocative painting titled 'The Lure of the Lido' from 1927. The scene unfolds at the Turkish bar of the iconic Excelsior Hotel, located on the Lido island in the magical city of Venice, Italy. The year is 1927, and the jazz age is in full swing. The air is thick with the intoxicating aroma of exotic spices and the sound of lively music, as elegantly dressed patrons gather for an evening of glamour and revelry. A sultry Eve in a red satin gown and feather headpiece casts a seductive glance over her shoulder, beckoning the viewer to join her in the festivities. To her left, a dapper gentleman in a pinstripe suit and straw boater, clad in the height of 1920s fashion, adjusts his cufflinks, deep in conversation with a stylishly dressed woman in a chic pyjama suit. The fashionable duo exudes an air of sophistication and allure, embodying the carefree spirit of the era. As the sun sets over the shimmering lagoon, the golden light casts an ethereal glow upon the scene, capturing the essence of a bygone age. This painting, a testament to the rich history and historical significance of the 1920s, invites us to take a moment to indulge in the timeless allure of Venice and the magic of the jazz age.
