This miniature illustration of St Mark’s Basilica was inspired by old photographs of Venice from the 19th Century. The line work is very detailed and contains a ‘scratchy’ feel to it, reminiscent of a time when Venice was a working city with buildings bearing the marks of and aged empire.

Hand printed onto Hahnemuhle 310gsm white etching paper. Limited print run of 20, with a hand-torn paper edge. Each print has been individually inked and pressed and is signed and numbered by the artist.

The artwork has been entirely made by hand, starting with the original drawing which is then exposed to a photopolymer etching plate, hand inked and printed using a traditional etching press.

The size of the print is 29.7cm x 21cm although there are some variations owing to the hand-torn paper.

The etching comes unframed.
