VENEZIA

Quando ho preso l’iniziativa di aggiungere alla mia collana fotografica un volume dedicato a Venezia ero ben consapevole che l’impresa non sarebbe stata facile.
Venezia è “grande”, trabocca di storia, di arte, di cultura, di civiltà: una città unica al mondo. Creare con il mezzo fotografico una sintesi di tanta grandezza è stata una sfida tanto impegnativa quanto gratificante.
(dalla presentazione di Gianfranco Levoni)

We all are familiar with the lagoon city of Venice because we have visited and appreciated it on one or more occasions, but certainly the photographic book by Gianfranco Levoni presents Venice from a new, more detailed and almost unfamiliar perspective. It is precisely this that makes Venice even more attractive. We appreciate and thank this great “master” of photography and look forward to his new and exciting publications.

When I took the initiative to add a volume dedicated to Venice to my series of photographs, I was well aware that this would not be an easy task. Venice is “great” and peculiar for its history, art, culture, civilization which make it a unique city in the world. It was a demanding, but at the same time rewarding challenge to reveal the magnificence of this city through photographs.
