Close up of St. Mark’s Basilica, Venice, 2018
Limited Edition of 100 | Signed & Numbered by the Artist
From the series: Stone, Water & Figures by Marco Alex
 
A close and reverent look at the sculptural majesty of St. Mark’s Basilica, this monochrome photograph isolates the intricate roofline statuary of the iconic Venetian church in San Marco Square. Taken in 2018, the composition draws the eye upward to the ornate figures that crown the Basilica—saints, angels, and symbolic forms rendered in sharp relief against a sky of dramatic, sweeping clouds.
By excluding the surrounding square and focusing tightly on the sculptural detail, the image transforms architectural ornament into an almost celestial encounter—stone and sky meeting in chiaroscuro harmony. The black and white treatment emphasizes texture, light, and form, inviting a contemplative reading of this historic masterpiece.
