$a The upper cover of the portfolio, which serves as its title leaf, carries the publication-date of 1881. The two folders carry the publication-dates on their covers of 1883 and 1884 (each carrying also a pasted-on printed label dated 1884), but the first having its own title-page carrying the date 1881. Several of the plates carry dates, ranging from 1879 to 1884. Grove describes the work as being published between 1877 and 1888. The several titles read: (Portfolio) 'La Basilica Di San Marco In Venezia (Tavole Cromolitografiche) Ferd. Ongania Editore Venezia MDCCCLXXXI'; (first folder, cover) 'La Basilica Di San Marco In Venezia Ferd. Ongania Editore Venezia MDCCCLXXXIII' (with printed label reading 'Ongania. Seconde Partie - in folio gr. Coupes Géométriques - Livraisons V. VI. (15 Giugnio 1884) Planches IV, VIII. = IX. XIa. XIb. (pl.5) Frs. 35.-'); (first folder, title-page) 'La Basilica Di San Marco In Venezia Illustrata Nella Storia E Nell'Arte Da Scrittori Veneziani - (XXII Tavole Di Spaccati Geometrici Ferd. Ongania Editore Venezia MDCCCLXXXI'; (first folder, title-plate) 'Rappresentazione Degli Antichi E Dei Moderni Musaici Della Basilica Di San Marco'; (second folder, cover) 'La Basilica Di San Marco In Venezia Ferd. Ongania Editore Venezia MDCCCLXXXIV' (with printed label reading 'Ongania. Seconde Partie in -folio gr. Coupes Géométriques - Livraisons VII. VIII. IX. (15 Dicembre 1884) Planches XII. XIII. XIV. = II.4 II.5 II.6 . . . (6 pl.) Frs. 42.-'. There is also a loose half-title, which may belong to any part, which reads, 'Basilica Di San Marco'. The work describes the cathedral church of St. Mark in Venice, which was founded ca. 830, restored ca. 978, rebuilt between 1063 and 1094 and further elaborated later. The building appears to have been in Greek-cross form from the start; and was probably modelled on the church of the Holy Apostles in Constantinople. The church is built of brick encased in marble and mosaic, and has five domes (one central dome and one on each of the four arms). Although predominantly eastern Romanesque in style, the construction includes what may be the first ogival arches in Europe. Many plates are printed in colour. |
