EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1549, when Salvador, formerly known as Bahia, was founded and became the capital of Brazil. The engraving, created by an unknown artist in the 16th century, showcases a remarkable view of this historic city. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a bustling port where boats gracefully glide through the water. The transport vehicles of that era can be seen docked along the shore, adding a sense of movement and activity to the scene. Salvador's unique architecture is on full display with its charming buildings and structures that line the streets. It is fascinating to witness how this city has evolved over centuries while still preserving its rich cultural heritage. The artist skillfully captures both the grandeur and intimacy of Salvador. From afar, we can appreciate its panoramic beauty - a harmonious blend of nature and human civilization. Yet as our eyes wander closer into the details within each building and street corner, we begin to imagine stories unfolding within these walls. This print serves as a testament to Salvador's historical significance not only for Brazil but also for South America as a whole. It allows us to reflect on how far this vibrant city has come since its humble beginnings in 1549. Giancarlo Costa's expertise in capturing timeless moments through his lens shines brightly once again with this extraordinary piece from his private collection.
