Description
I see the ancient cities of the Adriatic as they look today............from Venice to Croatia and beyond. Don't you wonder what they may have looked like five or six centuries ago? That is what this strictly imaginary painting is about. Colorful buildings and boats in a bygone era. The grouchy Doge of Venice sometime in the 1500's declared that all the gondolas must be painted black.....Apparently somebody got a little over the top with the color. This would have been before such a thing took place.
