Author Description

"The [book] presents a novel view of Venice through close-up details of its architectural heritage. For years, Ugo Carmeni has been painstakingly mapping the city by exploring and recording the chromatic variety of its plasterwork, the texture of its walls, the patterns of its roofing, and the richness of its stone vestments. The pictures that compose the [book] are the fruit of a photographic campaign that took place between October 2020 and March 2023 in the context of the restoration of several buildings and churches of the Patriarchate of Venice."--venicemappingtime.com.
