EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Venice during the mid-20th century. Taken around 1945, it showcases a squero, which is a traditional shipyard specifically designed for Venetian vessels. The image captures the essence of Venetian architecture with its intricate window frames and decorative building elements. The structure stands proudly against the backdrop of a serene canal, emphasizing its close connection to water transportation. It exudes an aura of history and craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations. In this bustling workyard, we see several workers engrossed in their vocation. A group of men are gathered near a gondola, perhaps discussing plans or sharing stories from their day's work. One man stands out as he gazes directly at the camera, his face weathered by years spent on these waters. The scene is filled with objects related to boat construction - ropes hanging from hooks, wooden planks stacked neatly against walls - all serving as reminders of the meticulous process involved in creating these magnificent vessels. Leiss Ferruccio's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty of this shipyard but also its significance within Venetian culture. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on naval and river transportation throughout history. As we gaze upon this evocative print, we can almost hear echoes of hammering and sawing mingling with distant sounds of lapping water. This photograph encapsulates both the timeless charm and industrious spirit that define Venice's unique identity.
