EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a gilded silver counter commemorating the action against the Barbary pirates in 1765. Created by Mario Soranzo, this intricate piece of art measures 3.3x0 cm and is housed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK.
The obverse side of the counter features an inscription within an ornamental floral frame, topped with the Doge's cap symbolizing Venetian authority. On the reverse side, a three-masted vessel can be seen flying the Venetian flag, anchored between two forts - a powerful representation of victory over piracy on the high seas.
This piece not only serves as a decorative item but also holds historical significance as it pays tribute to those who fought against piracy during that time period. The detailed craftsmanship and symbolism depicted on this counter make it a true work of art that transports viewers back to a time when maritime battles were common occurrences.
Whether displayed in a museum or private collection, this print allows us to appreciate the skill and creativity of artists like Soranzo who captured important moments in history through their craft. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with seafaring adventures and acts as a testament to human resilience in overcoming challenges on land and sea alike.
