EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century albumen print depicts the exterior of the iconic Santa Maria della Salute church in Venice, Italy. Dating from approximately 1850-1876, this image is part of an album containing photographs and drawings by Manuel Mayo, showcasing the artistic and cultural richness of the city. Santa Maria della Salute, also known as the Church of the Health of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is a significant Roman Catholic basilica and a major landmark in Venice. Its distinctive red and white façade, adorned with intricate sculptures and ornate details, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Venetian lagoon. The church was built in the late 16th and early 17th centuries as a votive offering for the deliverance of Venice from the plague, and its name reflects this religious and historical significance. The print offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the low countries, including Italy and the Netherlands, were at the forefront of artistic and cultural innovation. The use of the albumen printing process, which involves coating a paper with a solution of silver salts and albumen, creates a rich, tonal image with exceptional detail and depth. Today, this print is a valuable addition to the collections of many art centres, galleries, and museums around the world, serving as a reminder of the enduring beauty and historical significance of Venice and its artistic heritage.
