EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Manuel Silvestri, a stunning winter scene unfolds in Venice's iconic St. Marks square. Snow-covered gondolas peacefully rest near the edge of the frozen lagoon, creating a picturesque sight that is both enchanting and rare. The cold weather has transformed this bustling urban city into a serene winter wonderland, offering an unexpected twist to its usual charm. The gondolas stand as silent witnesses to the tranquil beauty that surrounds them, their exteriors covered in a pristine white blanket of snow. This image beautifully captures the essence of connection and communication between nature and man-made structures. The gondolas, traditionally used for transport through Venetian waterways, now find themselves in formation on the frozen surface of the lagoon – an imaginative and creative use during these extraordinary circumstances. With no people visible in the frame, one can truly appreciate the untouched beauty of this snowy landscape. As sunlight gently illuminates the scene from above, it creates a magical ambiance where multiple elements seamlessly come together: water meets land; tradition blends with innovation; and nature embraces human creation. Silvestri's photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst harsh weather conditions, there is still immense beauty to be found. It invites viewers to pause and marvel at how something as simple as snowfall can transform familiar surroundings into something utterly breathtaking.
