Description
This is an Original Antique Albumen Print by Carlo Naya (1816-1882). Title is Rialto Bridge, Venice.This is a gorgeous antique photograph depicting figures placed in a Venice background space. There is some damage to the work including three smudges/imperfections at the top and bottom. This is mounted to board with a “Naya” blind stamp and pencil text on the mount with the title and a name. Please see photos and consider them a part of the condition report.
Image size appropriately 10.5” x 14” and board size about 12.25” x 18”.
I have seen auction estimates in upwards of thousands of dollars for his work. This would be a great addition to any collection.
Brief bio from Wikipedia:
Carlo Naya (1816 in Tronzano Vercellese – 1882 in Venice) was an Italian photographer known for his pictures of Venice including its works of art and views of the city for a collaborative volume in 1866. He also documented the restoration of Giotto's frescoes at the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua.
