EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking view, painted between 1768 and 1770 by the Venetian artist Bernardo Bellotto, captures the Church of the Bernardine Sisters and Sigismund's Column in Warsaw, Poland. Bellotto, a prominent painter of the Venetian School, was known for his veduta paintings, or views of urban and rural landscapes. In this work, he masterfully depicts the baroque architecture of the Church of the Bernardine Sisters, with its intricate facade and tall spire, standing proudly against the backdrop of the city. The column of Sigismund III Vasa, a 17th-century monarch of Poland and Sweden, dominates the scene, its ornate base adorned with sculptures and its tall shaft reaching towards the heavens. The painting is filled with a sense of grandeur and the vibrant colors of the Italian palette, transporting us back in time to the bustling streets of 18th-century Warsaw. The Church of the Bernardine Sisters, built between 1633 and 1653, was one of the most important religious institutions in the city, and its proximity to Sigismund's Column, a symbol of Polish national pride, further emphasizes the religious and cultural significance of this scene. This painting is a testament to Bellotto's skill as a painter and his ability to capture the essence of a place and time, making it a valuable addition to the Collection of the Royal Castle in Warsaw.
