EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "View of the city of Funchal on the island of Madere (Madeira) in Portugal" takes us back to the charming streets of 19th-century Funchal. The print, featured in "The Illustrated London News" on February 29,1857, captures the essence and beauty of this Portuguese city. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details meticulously etched by an unknown artist. The bustling cityscape comes alive with its winding cobblestone streets lined with quaint houses and buildings. The enchanting architecture showcases a blend of traditional Portuguese design elements that have stood the test of time. Funchal's natural surroundings also take center stage in this picturesque scene. Towering mountains provide a dramatic backdrop as they embrace the vibrant city below. Lush greenery adorns every corner, reminding us why Madeira is often referred to as the "Garden Island". Transported back over a century ago, we can almost hear echoes of laughter and feel a sense of community emanating from these streets. This engraving serves as both a historical record and an invitation to explore further into Funchal's rich heritage. Preserved within private collections today, this remarkable piece by Stefano Bianchetti allows us to appreciate not only his artistic talent but also glimpse into a bygone era that shaped Funchal into what it is today – a captivating destination blending history, nature, and culture
