This book is far more than just a collection of photographs – it is an intimate memoir of Venice. Far from being a typical guide, it takes the reader on a delightful stroll along Venice’s calli, bridges, alleys and campielli in search of mysterious corners and surprising views.
Vinicio Tassani, a true Venetian and lifelong lover of his city, has discovered and experienced these places during his many wanderings, exploring the calli, peeking into doorways and courtyards, making small but polite transgressions and skilfully wielding his camera to capture the colourful and sometimes decadent soul and timeless charm of a Venice with so much still to be discovered.
