Only Venice. Images of Italy 21st
19.99 €
A unique book about an incredible city. The Venetian past has not disappeared, the eternal beauty is as fresh as "high water", from the Rialto Bridge you can hear the voices of courtesans and the screams of nicolotti fighting with castellani. Here there are more masks than faces and more skeletons than cupboards, here the blind Doge Dandolo changes the map of the world and reigns the ineradicable Byzantineism, which Venice forever infected by plundering Constantinople. There are crowds of tourists and dead desertion, tall Slavic slaves and crusader bandits, Vivaldi and Titian, Gozzi and Tintoretto, Diaghilev and Brodsky, Venetian avant-garde of the XV century, ancient skyscrapers of the Venetian ghetto, shimmering gold smaltes, multicolored ringing of Murano glass, green smell of the sea in Cannaregio and Rio. And an unquenchable, unquenchable desire to return to the city that has no equal in the world.
