EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, during the Italian campaign. The image captures a bivouac set up in front of the majestic ducal palace in Venice. It is a testament to the historical significance of this city, even amidst times of war. The composition exudes an air of mystery as we see soldiers gathered around their campsite, their faces hidden under hats and helmets. They are surrounded by tents and makeshift shelters, creating a stark contrast against the grandeur of the palace behind them. This juxtaposition emphasizes both the transience and resilience of human existence in times of conflict. The unknown artist who captured this moment has skillfully portrayed not only military life but also conveyed a sense of camaraderie among these soldiers. Their presence here symbolizes their unwavering dedication to duty and sacrifice for their country. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of Venice's iconic ducal palace and its transformation into an unexpected backdrop for military operations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, it serves as a poignant reminder that history is often shaped by moments like these – where artistry meets warfare on Venetian soil.
