Ahmet Ertuğ — Bibiena Theatre, Mantova
Ahmet Ertuğ

Bibiena Theatre, Mantova

A grand interior of the historic Bibiena Theatre in Mantova is captured with meticulous precision, revealing its ornate Baroque architecture of tiered balconies, gilded details, and intimate elliptical form. Ertuğ's chromogenic print renders the richly decorated space in luminous, saturated color, emphasizing the theater's layered ornamentation and theatrical grandeur. The image conveys both the elegance and the hushed, timeless atmosphere of one of Italy's most celebrated eighteenth-century performance venues.
