Venice & the Veneto
Moving Pictures
Action-packed paintings by Titian , Veronese and Tintoretto on view at Venice's Biennale
illuminate the path to modern art. The Church repeatedly failed to censor these avant-garde
artists.
Reflected Glories
Story-book castles, gracious country villas and an entire city of palaces on the water, the
Veneto's architectural landmarks admire their own reflections in the snaking canals.
Inspired Wine Pairings
Wine aficionados throng VinItaly to sample Valpolicella's favourite Amarone, Soave and
prosecco
(sparkling wine) - plus innovative blends seldom tasted outside the Veneto.
