EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing ceiling painting by Giovan Battista Tiepolo titled "Performing dogs". Located in Ca' Rezzonico, Venice, this masterpiece is housed in the Museum of the Venetian 18th century Mural Painting. Tiepolo's artwork transports viewers to a world of enchantment and amusement as it depicts a scene filled with lively dogs engaging in various games and pastimes. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings these terrestrial mammals to life, capturing their playful nature and vibrant energy. The painting is set against a backdrop that reflects the distinctive styles of both Renaissance and Baroque periods. Its creation dates back to around 1720-1770, showcasing Tiepolo Giambattista's artistic brilliance during this era. Intriguingly, the canines are depicted donning costumes that were fashionable during the eighteenth century. This adds an element of whimsy and charm to the overall composition, transporting viewers back in time while celebrating fashion trends from centuries ago. Accompanying them is an instrument or document - a tambourine - which suggests that music played an integral role in this festivity country festival setting. It further emphasizes Europe's rich cultural heritage during this period. Alinari Fratelli captured this photograph with great skill and precision in 2002. Their expertise highlights every intricate detail of Tiepolo's masterpiece, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even through a printed medium. This print serves as a reminder of our timeless fascination with art throughout history. It invites us into an extraordinary world where animals come alive on canvas, evoking joyous emotions within us all.
