EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FVQ-F-009179-0000" we are transported back in time to the enchanting Lido of Venice in the early 1920s. The focal point of the image is none other than the majestic Excelsior Palace Hotel, standing proudly against a backdrop of serene waters. The grandeur of this architectural masterpiece is evident from its intricate facade, adorned with exquisite building elements and decorative sections that exude timeless elegance. Each window tells a story, inviting us to imagine the luxurious interiors hidden within. The sheer size and structure of the hotel command attention, symbolizing opulence and sophistication. As our gaze extends beyond the hotel's walls, we catch a glimpse of daily life on the Lido. A small boat gracefully glides along the water's surface, serving as both scene and method of transportation for locals or perhaps adventurous tourists exploring this picturesque island. This photograph by Giovanni Scarabello captures not only an iconic landmark but also encapsulates an era when travel was imbued with romance and charm. It transports us to a time where architecture seamlessly blended with nature's beauty, creating harmonious landscapes that continue to captivate even today. Let this mesmerizing image serve as a reminder that there is more to Venice than gondolas and canals; it showcases how buildings themselves become part of its unique allure. As we admire Scarabello's artistry through his lens, let us appreciate not just commercial use but rather celebrate how photography can preserve moments frozen in time – allowing future generations to experience their own journey through history.
