1745 Blaze Boats Damaged Lightning Old Print Public Space Quint Spire Square Steeple Storm Struck Venice


EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the dramatic moment when the tower of St. Marks in Venice was struck and damaged by a powerful bolt of lightning on April 23,1745. The engraving, dating back to the 18th or 19th century, showcases the iconic steeple rising majestically above the bustling public square. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era as boats glide along Venetian canals while people gather below, witnessing this extraordinary event unfold before their eyes. The intensity of the blaze caused by "fire from the heavens" is vividly portrayed in this retro artwork. The artist's meticulous attention to detail transports us back in time, allowing us to experience both awe and fear that must have gripped those who witnessed this natural disaster centuries ago. Despite its destruction, there is an undeniable beauty in seeing such power captured within a single frame. This enchanting print from Liszt Collection serves as a reminder of nature's might and our own vulnerability. It stands as a testament to human resilience as well, for despite enduring damage over time, St. Marks Tower still proudly graces Venice's skyline today - an enduring symbol of strength and endurance against all odds.
