EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the façade of the Venetian Palazzo Malipiero-Trevisan. The balcony, adorned with exquisite porphyry and serpentine discs and plaques, stands as a testament to the grandeur and opulence of Renaissance architecture in Venice. The photograph, taken between 1920-1930, captures the timeless beauty of this architectural masterpiece that dates back to the period between 1500-1550. Created by Lombardo, Sante, an accomplished artist of his time, this artwork exemplifies the fusion of Renaissance-Baroque styles prevalent during that era. Every element within this composition tells a story; from the intricately designed railing made from wrought metal to various building elements such as arches, capitals, pilaster strips, doors and windows. Each detail contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal while showcasing exceptional craftsmanship in applied arts and crafts. The image also encompasses other notable features like niches, stairs leading up to the balcony adorned with a stunning tympanum. This palatial structure not only serves as housing but also acts as a bridge connecting different parts of Venice for transportation purposes. In addition to highlighting architectural marvels captured through photography by Alinari Fratelli's lens; it is worth mentioning how fashion plays its part in depicting life during that period. The presence of male figures dressed in clothing typical for daytime activities adds depth to our understanding of society at that time. Moreover, one cannot overlook the subtle inclusion of sculptures adorning this magnificent edifice - their sculpted heads reflecting renaissance influences prominent throughout Europe during first and second millennium A. D. This print encapsulates centuries' worth of history within its frame – an artistic representation capturing both elegance and grandiosity synonymous with Venetian architecture.
