EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by the renowned British artist, Arthur Joseph Meadows, created in the year 1907. This masterpiece showcases the iconic symbol of Venice, the Winged Lion of St. Mark, proudly perched atop the Doge's Palace in St. Mark's Square. The painting beautifully captures the grandeur and the rich history of this iconic Venetian landmark. The Winged Lion, the patron saint of Venice, is depicted with its wings spread wide, symbolizing power and protection. Its piercing gaze and intricately detailed mane and body exude a sense of strength and nobility. The lion's paw gripping the open book, inscribed with the Latin words "Pax Tibi Marce Evangelista Meus," translates to "Peace be to you, O Evangelist Mark," further emphasizing the religious significance of the symbol. The background of the painting reveals the stunning architecture of the Doge's Palace, with its intricate Gothic and Renaissance details, reflecting in the calm waters of the lagoon. The vibrant colors of the painting, from the rich gold and red of the lion to the deep blues and greens of the water and sky, bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to the heart of Venice. Arthur Joseph Meadows, a prolific painter of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, expertly captured the essence of this iconic symbol and its historic setting in this stunning work of art. This painting is a testament to Meadows' exceptional talent and his ability to evoke the beauty and history of Venice through his art. The Patricia Aubrey Collection is proud to present this exquisite painting, "The Winged Lion of St. Mark's Square, Venice, Italy," for art lovers and collectors to cherish and admire. This painting is not only a beautiful addition to any art collection but also a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of Venice and its most famous symbol, the Winged Lion of St. Mark.
