Editor’s Note: In these photographs, Venice reveals itself not as a tourist postcard, but as a breathing poem of shadows and reflections. The absence of color heightens the city’s voice—the silent glide of gondolas beneath weathered arches, the echo of footsteps through deserted piazzas, the timeless gaze of statues carved in melancholy grace. Each frame is a fragment of suspended time: water whispering against old brick, light dissolving into night, and masks that hint at centuries of human mystery. This collection does not merely show Venice—it listens to her, allowing the viewer to feel the city’s ancient pulse beneath the quiet surface.
