EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting cityscape of Venice, specifically focusing on The Salute from S. Giorgio Maggiore in 1909. Renowned artist JMW Turner expertly portrays the picturesque scene with his signature watercolour technique, showcasing his mastery of capturing light and atmosphere. The vibrant yellow hues of sunlight bathe the city, illuminating its architectural wonders and creating a mesmerizing play of shadows. Against this backdrop, people can be seen going about their day, adding a sense of life and movement to the serene setting. Turner's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts San Giorgio Maggiore rising majestically from the Venetian lagoon. Its elegant silhouette stands tall against the sky, serving as a testament to both human ingenuity and natural beauty. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to early 20th century Italy. The print itself was published by Avalon Press in London in 1909 as part of "The Water-colours of J. M. W. Turner" collection curated by W. G Rawlinson and A. J Finberg. This remarkable piece not only showcases Turner's artistic brilliance but also serves as a reminder of our fascination with science and astronomy during that era. It invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind this masterpiece and its historical significance within the context of turn-of-the-century Europe.
