Venice


Venice












Gold and silver Idyll

Cascade of colorful tales

Laces, glasses and jewels

Childish wonder in the eyes

Canaletto and Guardi

An iridescent mirror

Behind a decadent town

An ancient temple’s ruins

Rotten channels and cracked walls

Hanging from the windows pierced linen

Venice, the great Republic of the Doges

Simulacrum of itself,

Stage of a bad comedian

Hollow ceramic mask.
