EDITORS COMMENTS
The departure of the Bucintoro in 1729, captured by Antonio Stom, is a breathtaking scene that transports us back to the grandeur and beauty of Venice during the Baroque era. The painting showcases the iconic Venetian tradition of the annual Ascension Day ceremony, where the Doge would board the magnificent Bucintoro ship and sail out into the Gulf of Venice to perform symbolic rites.
Stom's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate architecture of St. Mark's Basilica and Palazzo Ducale to the bustling crowds gathered on Piazza San Marco. The vibrant colors and dynamic composition bring this historical moment to life, allowing us to imagine ourselves witnessing this majestic event firsthand.
As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of Venice's rich history as a powerful maritime republic and cultural hub. The painting not only captures a specific moment in time but also serves as a window into an era defined by opulence, artistry, and tradition.
Displayed in the Collection of Fondazione Querini Stampalia, this print allows us to appreciate Stom's talent and skill as an artist while immersing ourselves in the splendor of Venetian life centuries ago. It is truly a testament to both artistic excellence and historical significance.
