EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Paolo Erizzo fatto segar vivo dai Turchi a Negroponte, 1470" transports us back to the rich history of Venice in the 15th century. Created by an anonymous Italian artist from the 19th century, this print captures a dramatic moment in Venetian history. The scene depicts Paolo Erizzo, a prominent figure of his time, being brutally executed by the Turks in Negroponte. The intense emotions and vivid details portrayed in this engraving make it impossible to look away. It serves as a haunting reminder of the dangers faced by Venetians during their interactions with other powerful nations. Originally published as an illustration for "Storia Veneta Espressa in Centocinquanta Tavole" by Grimaldo in 1867, this artwork offers insight into both historical events and artistic techniques prevalent during that era. The intricate lines and shading demonstrate the skillful craftsmanship of the Italian School. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a different time and place - one filled with political intrigue, cultural clashes, and human resilience. It reminds us of Venice's pivotal role within Europe and its enduring legacy as a hub for trade and diplomacy. This print is part of Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its significance within European history.
