EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print depicts the breathtaking view of Piazza Banchi in Genoa, Italy. At the heart of the scene, the elegant facade of San Pietro in Banchi, a Roman Catholic church, stands proudly. The intricate architectural details of the church's exterior are beautifully rendered, with its ornate columns, arches, and intricate stonework. The church's bell tower reaches towards the sky, casting long shadows over the bustling piazza below. Surrounding the church, figures of people go about their daily business, adding a sense of life and activity to the scene. The vibrant colors and rich textures of the buildings and clothing are brought to life through the skillful use of watercolor paint or possibly an etching technique. The Dutch connection to this piece is evident in the meticulous attention to detail and the use of naturalistic colors, reminiscent of the Dutch masters of the time. The print is a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of Genoa, a city in the Liguria region of Italy, and the broader European context of the 18th century. The Remondini family, renowned for their printmaking in Bassano del Grappa, Italy, may have produced this print, although the creator remains unknown. Today, this print can be found in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, a fitting home for this beautiful work of art.
