Donald Shaw MacLaughlan's 1909 etching "Santa Maria Formosa, Venice" depicts the famed church and its bell tower in the heart of Venice. The image is a detailed and nuanced depiction of the architectural structure, with the artist's keen eye for detail and use of light and shadow giving a sense of depth and realism to the composition. The etching is characteristic of MacLaughlan's signature style which often focused on capturing the architecture and ambiance of European cities. This artwork, a testament to his artistic prowess, is a great example of his love for capturing the historical grandeur of European cities.
