Description

(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Gondolas date back to the 14th Century when horses were out-lawed on the streets of Venice. These stylish boats then became a major form of transportation. Craftsman still build them slowly by hand and many are still decorated with intricate wood carvings and detailed ornaments. Today, Gondoliers row tourists by buildings as old as Venice itself. Bricks and stone that have stood for centuries are now faded and worn, providing a stark contrast to a new ...Gondola In Venice.

I created this black and white image from my original color photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.

PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.

Many thanks and best wishes!
