EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the grandeur and elegance of the Doge of Venice as he makes his way to St. Mark's Basilica. Protected by a lavish parasol made of gold brocade, the Doge exudes power and authority in his exquisite Venetian costume. Published in the late 19th or early 20th century, this Liebig card is part of a series on umbrellas and parasols, showcasing their significance not only as practical accessories but also as symbols of status and protection. The image beautifully portrays how even rulers sought shade from the scorching sun under these ornate canopies. The Doge's procession through the streets of Venice evokes images of Renaissance splendor, with guards accompanying him along his walk. As he strolls towards St. Mark's Basilica, one cannot help but be captivated by the majestic architecture that surrounds him – a testament to Venetian artistry and craftsmanship. This print offers us a glimpse into European history, reminding us of Venice's rich cultural heritage and its influential role during this era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political power struggles within Europe, there was still time for leisurely promenading along Venetian walls walks. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this artwork transports us back in time to witness an important moment in Italian history – when rulers like the Doge proudly displayed their authority while embracing both fashion and functionality under golden parasols.
