Map of Venice - 1838
This 1838 hand colored, engraved map of Venice, Italy was originally published by the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge as part of a two volumes educational set. An inset on the top right corner shows a plan of the environs of Venice, with the lagunes. On the top left, a scene depicts the Mint, St. Mark's Church, and the Palace. The bottom of the map displays drawings of 12 buildings, structures, and facades.
Our reproductions are carefully restored by hand, with care and respect for the original craftsmanship. We dedicate extensive time to repairing faded colors, mending any damages, to ensure that every detail is faithfully represented. When you acquire one of our pieces, you're getting more than just a printed copy - you're getting a revitalized historical treasure, meticulously brought back to its authentic form. This piece is printed and assembled in our downtown Los Angeles studio using our 12 color Canon Pro 4100 large format printer on Epson Exhibition Satin Canvas, a heavyweight 23 mil semi-gloss textured canvas that is enhanced with protective elastic polymers. Decorative wood, stained and varnished is added on the top and bottom, with two eye-hooks mounted on the top piece for hanging. We also supply a jute rope twine that can be attached between the two eye-hooks to complete the vintage feel of a roll down canvas scroll.
