Un Ospite di Venezia-11-2023
Around the middle of the century, Francesco Hayez portrays Matilde, a young noblewoman from the Pirovano Visconti di Modrone family: an undoubtedly splendid work by an artist recognized as the main exponent of the Italian Romantic movement. This is the image we have chosen to open this month to introduce one of the most important artistic and cultural events of the year: the reconstruction, a hundred years later, of what turned out to be a true event, an exhibition that brought to light the Venetian art of an entire century, long overshadowed by the mythologizing of the preceding one, the 18th century.

Il Traghetto su gondole
Non molti visitatori sanno che al servizio turistico
offerto dalle classiche gondole, si aggiunge il servizio
delle cosiddette gondole “da parada”, cioè
di quel tipo di gondola dedicata a far da spola da
una riva all’altra del Canal Grande.
Antica istituzione, la gondola da traghetto è una
versione “popolare” della gondola oggi usata per
il turismo. Priva di ornamenti e condotta da due
rematori, offre la possibilità - decisamente meno
costosa - di provare l’ebbrezza di un passaggio a
pelo d’acqua lungo la più famosa via d’acqua al
mondo.
Il servizio, reso possibile grazie ad un accordo tra
il Comune di Venezia e l’Associazione gondolieri,
viene svolto tra le due sponde del canale attualmente
da cinque stazi (approdi): Dogana, Santa
Maria del Giglio, San Tomà, Riva del Carbon, Santa
Sofia.Il costo a tratta è di € 2,00 (o.70 con carta
Imob).
Gondola Ferries
Not many visitors know that in addition to the tourist
service offered by classic gondolas there is the socalled
gondola “da parada” service, that is, a type
of gondola used for shuttling from one Grand Canal
bank to the other.
An ancient tradition, the gondola-ferry is a “downto-earth”
version of the gondolas used nowadays for
tourism. With no decorations and guided by two rowers,
it offers a - much less expensive - opportunity for
experiencing the thrill of passage at water-level over
the most famous waterway in the world.
This service, made possible thanks to an agreement
between the Venice Municipality and the Gondoliers’
Association, is currently carried out between the two
banks of the canal from five stazi (stations): Dogana,
Santa Maria del Giglio, San Tomà, Riva del Carbon,
Santa Sofia: the cost for one-way is 2.00 € (70 cents
with an Imob card).
