Gaetano Zancon

Gaetano Zancon is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Gaetano Zancon made religious prints in the late 18th to early 19th century, a time when printed pictures spread art to people’s homes. You’ll find a clear example in his print Virgin Enthroned, where a calm, crowned figure sits on a throne surrounded by angels. These prints were the Instagram of their day—cheap, easy to share, and full of meaning for believers. Tap Virgin Enthroned to see how art moved out of churches and into everyday life.
