Magic lantern slide circa 1900.Victorian/Edwardian.Social History. The Beauties of Venice,photographs created in 1888 Joseph John William ACWORTH F.I.C., F.C.S.J. The Beauties of Venice . Giant's Staircase, Side View. This gives us a nearer view of a portion of our last picture. There is a side view of the Giant's Staircase and statues at the top. On our left is a statue of Duke Francis Maria I. of Urbino. The other statue, in the niche, is antique, and one of a number of such ornaments around its courtyard. Much of the work here seen was executed at the time when Venice was at the culminating point of her glory, when she was the focus of the entire commerce of Europe, numbered 200,000 inhabitants, and was universally respected and admired [B] Leaving the courtyard by the same way we came, we enter the Piazza of St. Mark's, where our next view was taken.
