EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and thrilling spectacle of bull hunting at Campo San Polo in Venice, back in 1648. The traditional Taurus hunt took place within the small square, where fearless dogs were unleashed to confront these powerful creatures. Painted by Joseph Heintz Je Jeune, a renowned artist of his time, this artwork is now displayed at Museo Correr in Venice. The scene depicted showcases the vibrant Venetian culture with its elaborate costumes and masks worn by both men and women. The streets are filled with a lively crowd eagerly observing the daring hunters as they engage in this ancient custom. The painting beautifully portrays the energy and excitement that permeated through every corner of Campo San Polo during such events. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel yourself transported back to 17th century Venice, immersing yourself in its rich history and traditions. It serves as a reminder of how humans have long sought entertainment through various means, even if it meant confronting formidable animals like bulls. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful photography has captured not only the essence of this historical moment but also highlights her own artistic talent. This print is a testament to her ability to capture fleeting moments that tell stories spanning centuries.
