Description
|
|
|
|
The city of Venice, with its abundance of water and marble, owes its existence expressly to wood—to the thousands of logs supporting the weight of its palazzi and churches, its shops and museums, as travel writer and Venetian native Aline Cendon tells us here. Wood also predominates in the city above the water, where finely worked, carved, and finished wood can be found everywhere from gondola hulls to Carnival masks. Cendon's tribute to wooden Venice is illustrated with beautiful color photos throughout, up to 18 x 12 inches.
