The Piazza San Marco and The Conflagration of the Palazzo Senatorii, c. 1577-8
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating hand-coloured engraving by Georgius Housnaglius from the 16th century. This remarkable print, now part of a private collection, depicts the bustling Piazza San Marco in Venice during a catastrophic event. The image showcases the grandeur of St Mark's Square with its magnificent architecture and intricate details. However, what truly captures one's attention is the dramatic scene unfolding before our eyes - the conflagration of the Palazzo Senatorii. Thick smoke billows into the sky as flames engulf this iconic building, creating an atmosphere filled with danger and chaos. Amidst this turmoil, we see a large group of people gathering on both sides of the square. Women and men alike are captivated by this devastating spectacle while others scramble to safety. The elevated view allows us to witness every detail: contrasting colors between buildings and smoke-filled skies create an eerie yet mesmerizing contrast. Housnaglius' masterful hand colouring adds depth and vibrancy to each element within this composition. The artist skillfully captures not only architectural beauty but also human emotions in response to such calamity. This print transports us back to late sixteenth-century Venice when fire was an ever-present threat in densely populated areas like St Mark's Square. It serves as a reminder that even amidst destruction, art can capture both historical events and human resilience for generations to come.
