s today's reality perhaps capable of significantly contradicting the Ode on Venice written by Lord Byron in the now distant 1819?

"Oh Venice! Venice! when thy marble walls
⁠Are level with the waters, there shall be
A cry of nations o'er thy sunken halls,
⁠A loud lament along the sweeping sea!
If I, a northern wanderer, weep for thee,
What should thy sons do? anything but weep:
And yet they only murmur in their sleep.
In contrast with their fathers as the slime,
The dull green ooze of the receding deep,
Is with the dashing of the spring tide foam,⁠
That drives the sailor shipless to his home,
Are they to those that were; and thus they creep,
Crouching and crab-like, through their sapping streets.

Born in Milan in 1953, where he lives and works. He has photographs printed in many magazines, in Italy and abroad. He has published several books, and has presented some of his works in solo-exhibitions.
