EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print transports us back to the bustling St Marks Square in Venice, circa 1900. The Italian photographer skillfully captures a moment of tranquility amidst the vibrant chaos of this iconic location. In the foreground, we see figures engaged in an age-old tradition - feeding the pigeons that flock around them. The birds, with their graceful flight and delicate presence, add a touch of ethereal beauty to the scene. The backdrop is dominated by two magnificent basilicas, symbols of Christian faith and architectural grandeur. Their towering spires reach towards the heavens as if seeking divine approval for this timeless spectacle. Fluttering flags proudly display their national colors, representing both Italy and Europe's rich cultural heritage. Venice itself becomes a character in this image; its unique architecture and winding canals providing an enchanting setting for these everyday moments of life. The Doges Palace stands majestically on one side while Piazza San Marco buzzes with activity all around. In capturing this snapshot from history, we are reminded not only of Venetian traditions but also how religion has shaped European culture throughout centuries. This print serves as a testament to our shared human experiences across time and place – where feeding pigeons becomes an act that connects us to something greater than ourselves.
