EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a watercolour drawing and ink depiction of a pawnshop, known as the Mount of Piety, in Venice. Created by Jan van Grevenbroeck (or Giovanni Grevembroch) in the 18th century, this artwork is part of his manuscript titled "Customs of the Venetians". The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the bustling atmosphere of this historical establishment. The image transports us back in time to an era where individuals sought financial assistance by pawning their belongings. The painting captures both the metal objects on display and the faces filled with misery and poverty. It serves as a poignant reminder of how economic struggles have existed throughout history. The artist's skillful brushstrokes beautifully portray not only the physical aspects but also convey emotions associated with money lending. This piece offers a glimpse into society's portrait during that period, highlighting both wealth disparity and human resilience. Displayed at Museo Correr in Venice, Italy, this artwork by Jan van Grevenbroeck continues to captivate viewers today. Giancarlo Costa has masterfully captured its essence through photography while preserving its historical significance for future generations to appreciate.
