De Brug der Zuchten, Venetië
Brangwyn visited Venice in 1896, 1905, and 1907. For this etching from 1911 he probably relied on drawings he had made on the spot in previous years. He also owned photographs of the building and may have used them to refresh his memory. Built around 1600 the Bridge of Sighs connects the Doge’s Palace with the prison of Venice. Convicts were led across it to hear their sentence.
