"The Campanile Over Venice" captures one of the most impressive panoramas the city has to offer. From an elevated vantage point, a sea of warm, red-orange Venetian roofs unfolds like a living carpet over the city. The famous Campanile di San Marco rises powerfully above the skyline, bathed in soft evening light that gives the ancient stones a golden sheen.
A section of the arcades of the Scala Contarini del Bovolo subtly appears on the right side of the picture, adding to the sense of depth and giving the image an elegant architectural framework. The combination of these elements makes the composition both intimate and grand: a view of the hidden, everyday Venice as well as the iconic, monumental heart of the city.
The warm colours, soft shadows and calm atmosphere give the image an almost timeless quality. It is a photograph that not only shows a view, but evokes a feeling - the feeling of wandering through a city that feels at once vibrant and hushed. This work perfectly captures the poetry of Venice: a city that allows itself to be discovered again and again, from rooftop terraces to campanile peaks.
