The book contains 430 color photographs showcasing Venetian homes, from palazzos to apartments, as well as local artisan workshops like glassmakers and weavers. Originally published in English in 1991 by Stewart, Tabori & Chang, this heavily illustrated volume provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the hidden residential spaces and lifestyle traditions of Venice. Rather than focusing purely on public monuments or crowded tourist areas, the book opens the doors to private Venetian residences.
