EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas painting, titled "La place Saint-Marc, inondation de 1863," by Felix Francois Georges Philibert Ziem, offers a glimpse into the past of two iconic European cities: Paris and Venice. Created in the late 19th century, this masterpiece captures the aftermath of the devastating flood of 1863 that hit Saint Mark's Square in Venice, Italy. The Barbizon School artist skillfully employs rich colors and vibrant hues to depict the flooded square, with its basilica di San Marco and Chiesa d'Oro facades partially submerged in water. Boats and gondolas are anchored nearby, their masts standing tall against the stormy sky. In the foreground, a group of men, bundled up against the cold and rain, huddle around a banner, perhaps seeking shelter or waiting for the floodwaters to recede. The painting's intricate details and textures bring to life the sense of community and resilience in the face of nature's wrath. The Petit Palais in Paris now houses this magnificent work of art, a testament to the enduring legacy of European heritage and the power of art to transport us through time.
