Steeped in history and culture, Venice, Italy, is one of the most unique cities on Earth. My hand-drawn map beautifully captures its remarkable character.
My map of Venice depicts the six Sestieri (districts) and over sixty landmarks around the Italian city. The decorations are influenced by Venetian cartography from the 17th - 18th centuries and stylistically reflect its maritime heritage, and the map is completed with a panorama of San Marco from San Giorgio Maggiore.
The original was drawn by hand in 2019 using ink dip pens with calligraphy and drawing nibs, and took about three months to research, plan, and draw.
For anyone who has been fortunate enough to visit this magical place, my Venice Map makes an amazing memento.
