Tourist Attractions & Monuments Venice

The Zenobio Palace was built at the end of the seventeenth century from a project by Antonio Gaspari, a student of Longhena. Since 1850, the palace has been owned by the Mechitarist Fathers of Venice. They set up their college here for the transmission of Armenian culture and language, active until 1997. Following extensive renovations, visitors can admire today the Sala degli Specchi and the Sala degli Stucchi (the ice rooms and the stucco hall), decorated with frescoes from the school of Tiepolo and vedut of the painter Luca Carlevarjis; These are two beautiful examples of Venetian aristocratic interiors of the eighteenth century. In summer, the gardens regularly host concerts and various events.

This ochre-colored palace, surrounded by a lush greenery near Campo San Stefano, is delightful. Its front façade overlooks the Grand Canal. Its typical Venetian architecture includes a series of added bays and gothic balconies. This is evidenced in particular by the abundant use of sorting (for three) and quadri (four) lobes. The interior is worth a great look for its neo-baroque magnificence: wooden doors, marble staircases, bronze canvas, ceilings adorned with stucco… On the occasion of artistic events, such as the Biennale di Venezia, the palace opens its doors to visitors. On a daily basis, this is the seat of the Venetian Institute of Science, Letters and Arts, which also houses a private school of design.

The origin of the large fish market in Pescaria, located on the island of Rialto, in Venice, dates back to the th century. But current buildings, brick and marble, date back to 1907. To enjoy the excitement and the profusion of these caves, which are full of a multitude of fish and shellfish, you must come early in the morning. Starting at 8 am is the best. Moreover, the Venetians say it: " The fish has 24 lives and it loses one per hour! " So to find fresh fish and still frétillant, there is no question of waiting the end of the morning! The stalls are almost empty, the atmosphere has fallen, some tourists wander through the aisles as if they had missed their train…

Its engravings are now an integral part of local heritage. Since 1977, this artist has been looking at the city and communicating it through the acid, the metal plate and the colour of the aquatint. Surprising clear-obscure, light, transparency… he has been able with genius to recreate the Venetian soul, light, atmosphere and atmosphere. At Lac Art you will find these small works of art at relatively affordable prices (around 100 € for an engraving of 30 cm per 50 cm). You can also choose very beautiful postcards from the works of the same artist. It will change some of the usual postcards (yet deliciously kitsch, we must admit). However, the engravings do not have the monopoly of exposure and sale at the gallery of the Bac Art Studio. It also contains work of other types: paintings, photos, photos developed on paper, sculptures… Venice does not have a monopoly of subjects… The staff is not often friendly, but when you are under the charm of a work of art, you adapt it. The vast collection of impressions is therefore worth a small visit, especially if you go to the Guggenheim Museum: The gallery is on the right side of the road leading to this temple of modern art.
