EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exterior view of the apse in the Church of Saints John and Paul, also known as San Zanipolo, located in Venice. The image captures the essence of Late Gothic architecture, which flourished during the Middle Ages in Europe. The photograph was taken around 1935, providing a glimpse into this magnificent structure that dates back to 1246. The church's construction spanned several centuries, with additions made between 1300 and 1368, and further enhancements completed by 1430. The focus of this particular shot is on the exquisite wrought metal railing that adorns the apse area. This intricate piece exemplifies applied arts and crafts from that era. It beautifully complements other building elements such as exedra and tribune while enhancing their decorative appeal. As one's gaze moves beyond the railing, stained glass windows come into view. These vibrant panels depict religious scenes characteristic of Christian art prevalent during this period. Intriguingly positioned nearby is a fountain with hydraulic features—a testament to both architectural ingenuity and functional design within religious structures at that time. Fiorentini Pietro skillfully captured all these remarkable details through his lens—preserving a moment frozen in time for us to appreciate today. This awe-inspiring print serves as a window into history—an opportunity to marvel at the craftsmanship and artistic vision that shaped churches like San Zanipolo throughout late Gothic Europe. Its beauty transcends commercial use; it stands as an enduring tribute to human creativity across generations.
