About the Item
This black-and-white photograph captures a gondolier working along the Grand Canal in Venice, with the famous Rialto Bridge in the background. The gondolier, dressed in traditional attire, is seen kneeling on the edge of his gondola, interacting with the canal’s edge as other gondolas float nearby. The scene showcases the timeless charm of Venice, with its historic architecture and bustling waterways. The photograph conveys the rhythm of daily life in this iconic city, where the gondola is both a means of transportation and a symbol of Venetian culture. The Rialto Bridge, an iconic landmark, provides a dramatic and elegant backdrop, enhancing the romantic atmosphere of the scene.
Erich Andres, born in Germany in 1905 and passing away in 1992, started his photography career in 1920 and was one of the early adopters of the Leica camera.

Notably, in 1951, he contributed to Edward Steichen's acclaimed exhibition "The Family of Man" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
