Résumé:

"La Serenissima is an exploration of [a] paradox; of a civilization living its last with feverish intensity. Before a vivid backcloth of monumental architecture, beneath the exquisite frescoes adorning church interiors, through the calli and canals of Venice herself, Alfonso Lowe recreates the vibrant life and the sumptuous ritual of this unique republic in its final, brilliant flourish of artistic creativity." -- Book jacket.
