Each complementary scene captures the atmosphere of the historic Italian city through softly rendered architecture, reflective waterways, gondolas, bridges, and iconic striped mooring posts.

The unusually elongated format gives the artwork a commanding vertical presence while maintaining a relatively narrow footprint. Display the prints together above a console, position them on either side of a doorway or cabinet, or use them to bring height and symmetry to an entry, dining room, library, or living space.

Each print is presented within an elaborate dimensional frame featuring layered moldings, carved-style scrollwork, foliate ornamentation, beading, and decorative corner details. The frames have been professionally reimagined in The Old Town Chapel’s signature Onyx Black & Gilded Reserve finish. Rich satin black settles into the broad surfaces and recessed areas, while selectively applied aged-gold highlights accentuate the raised ornamentation and narrow inner liners. A softly variegated glaze lends depth and an intentionally time-honored appearance.

These are well-executed modern decorative reproductions offered as one coordinated pair. Their value lies in their substantial scale, complementary Venetian subject matter, ornate frames, and dramatic hand-finished presentation.

FINISH

The Old Town Chapel Onyx Black & Gilded Reserve — a layered satin-black finish with selectively hand-applied aged-gold detailing and subtle tonal variation. The finish is intentionally artisanal rather than mechanically uniform, allowing the frames’ dimensional carving and character to remain prominent.

The two prints are sold together as a coordinated pair.
