RARE SURVIVING PHOTO-CHROMO-LITHOGRAPH OF ST. MARKS SQUARE VENICE ITALY C1900

A chance to acquire a rare hand coloured chromo-lithograph,produced from enlarging an original black and white photograph taken around the turn of the century, showing a panoramic and detailed view of the well known St.Marks Square in Venice Italy.

Lots of pigeons are seen in the foreground,very much as it is today.
The early period of dress that people are seen wearing,dates the large photographic image,as around 1890-1900,and is astonishingly clear for such an early image,which would have been taken with very basic equipment having been set up on a static fixed position trypod,to expose over at least afew minutes.
