| dc.description | Context view, from south; Often claimed as the work of Gambello, although undocumented, is the land-gate (completed 1460) to the Venetian Arsenal, a complex early Renaissance work, loosely based on the Roman Arch of the Sergii at Pula (Croatia), then a Venetian colony. In detail immature, the land-gate is notable for its classical, rather than Lombard Renaissance, origins. [Wikipedia: The Arsenal itself is the the Venetian state shipyard and naval depot. The name probably comes from Arabic Dar al Sina'a ("Dockyard"). Significant parts of the Arsenal were destroyed under Napoleonic rule, and later rebuilt to enable the Arsenal's present use as a naval base. It is also used as a research centre, an exhibition venue during the Venice Biennale and is home to a historic boat preservation centre.] Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordartonline.com/ (accessed 7/7/2008) | en_US |
