Venezia by Federico Povoleri

Through the Eyes of a Venetian.

Venice as nobody knows it: a surprising and intimate look at the "Serenissima".

The only illustrated book about Venice on the market in black and white

Photographer Federico Povoleri is a born Venetian and knows his hometown like no other. With his poetic black and white photographs, he captures an atmosphere of the lagoon city that usually gets lost in the hustle and bustle of the tourist crowds.
Federico Povoleri's knowledge of the city allows him to capture motifs that we seem to know - and yet show us Venice in a new light. And so his illustrated book is a melancholic declaration of love for his hometown and at the same time a memorial to the creeping destruction of its unique beauty.
