EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Pietro Bembo, a prominent figure in Venetian and Italian literature during the Renaissance. The image is derived from "True Portraits" a renowned publication by Andre Thevet, which was first published in 1584. Pietro Bembo (1470-1547) was not only an accomplished scholar and poet but also a cardinal hailing from Venice. His most influential work, "A Prose della volgar lingua" delved into the art of writing poetry in Italian, solidifying his place as a literary theorist of great significance. With his long beard and dignified expression, Bembo exudes wisdom and intellectual prowess. As we delve into this portrait further, we are transported to 16th-century Italy where books were treasured possessions and knowledge was highly revered. This engraving captures the essence of Bembo's contribution to Italian literature while highlighting his role as a historian and librarian for the Republic of Venice. The intricate details within this artwork allow us to appreciate both its historic value and artistic merit. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage that flourished during this period of European history. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of Pietro Bembo's enduring legacy as one of Italy's most celebrated poets and scholars.
