EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the battle between the Venetian fleet, led by Captain Ivanovich da Dabrota, and Turkish Pirates at Durazzo. Painted by an anonymous Italian artist in the 18th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece now resides in the Museo Storico Navale in Venice, Italy. The image showcases a dramatic scene of naval warfare as Venetian galleys with billowing sails engage with Turkish pirate ships amidst a backdrop of towering fortress walls. The rugged coastline of Albania serves as a stunning setting for this intense clash between two maritime powers. Every detail is meticulously depicted, from the determined faces of sailors manning their posts to the intricate design of each vessel. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to this historical painting. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured through photography, we are transported back to that fateful day in 1756 when bravery met treachery on the open sea. It reminds us not only of the valor displayed by Captain Ivanovich da Dabrota and his crew but also highlights Venice's rich naval history. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind this Italian School painting and its significance as an important piece of maritime history.
