EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the Galleria dell Carte Geografiche in Venice, Italy. Created by the talented artist Egnazio Danti between 1580 and 1583, this masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious Vatican Museums and Galleries in Vatican City. The image captures an aerial view of Venice, revealing its intricate network of islands nestled within the grand canal and lagoon. The composition beautifully highlights the city's unique charm and architectural splendor. Commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII, this artwork consists of 40 panels that meticulously depict various aspects of geography. Each panel tells a story about different regions around the world, but it is this particular section dedicated to Venice that truly captivates viewers with its exquisite attention to detail. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported to a time when Venetian civilization flourished as one of Europe's most influential cultural centers. The image invites us to explore every nook and cranny of this enchanting cityscape – from its iconic landmarks to its hidden alleyways – evoking a sense of wonderment and curiosity. Sally Greene has skillfully captured not only the beauty but also the historical significance embodied within this artwork. Through her lens, she allows us to appreciate both Danti's artistic prowess and Venice's enduring allure.
