One of the most iconic symbols of the city of Venice, the Gondolas have been parading through the canals of the city since the Middle Ages, bringing to life a centuries-old tradition. The magic happens in the famous Squeri, places where every Gondola is born and where the Venetian master carpenters attribute a symbolic and unique meaning to every detail.
"The voice of the gondolier is among the various sounds, the dominant note in Venice. Here there are no noises, except those produced by man, no dry screeching of wheels or pawing of hooves. Everything is vocalized, personal. It can be stated with force that Venice is the city of conversation "
Henry James, 1882
