EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a magnificent parade float in the form of a ship, adorned with the coat of arms of the Grand Duke of Modena at its top. Created by Stefano della Bella in 1652, this 17th-century masterpiece showcases an array of animal and aquatic life motifs that add to its grandeur. The image transports us back to a time when pageantry and celebration were essential elements of society. The arena is filled with an excited audience, eagerly awaiting the spectacle about to unfold before their eyes. Spectators line up along the streets, marveling at this giant float as it glides through the city. Della Bella's attention to detail is evident in every etching and engraving on this remarkable piece. Dolphins gracefully swim alongside whales, symbolizing both power and grace. The intricate design reflects Italian heritage artistry at its finest. Located within the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a reminder of Italy's rich cultural history. It encapsulates not only transportation but also entertainment during that era. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are transported into a world where imagination knows no bounds - where ships become floats and animals come alive amidst celebrations fit for royalty.
