EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century, titled "Il Campiello Act I" by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Venice during that era. The scene depicts a bustling street filled with merchants and inhabitants going about their business. In the foreground, we see a young girl holding a basket, perhaps on her way to market or running errands for her family. She is surrounded by beautifully detailed buildings that reflect the architectural style of the time. The attention to detail in this engraving transports us back in time and allows us to imagine what it was like to walk these streets centuries ago. The composition also includes various elements that give insight into Venetian society at the time. A travelling merchant can be seen pushing his cart along the street, highlighting the importance of trade in this bustling city. Additionally, there are people sitting on chairs outside their homes, engaging in conversation and observing passersby. This engraving is based on Carlo Goldoni's play "Il Campiello" which explores themes of love, social class, and everyday life in Venice. It serves as both a visual representation of Italian literature from that period and as an exquisite example of 18th-century scenography. Giancarlo Costa's print captures not only historical accuracy but also evokes emotions through its intricate details and vibrant portrayal of Venetian life during this enchanting era.
