Today we will take a look through some of the earliest, and rarest, photographs of Venice, Italy. These images will be from an assortment of sources, however, the bulk of these images will date to before the year 1900, and come to us from the collections of 19th century photographer Carlo Ponti. 
-
What stands out to me in these photographs is the cleanliness of the city, which has a history dating back numerous centuries. We will discuss briefly Carlo Ponti, his contributions to photography, and his inventions. We will then dive deeper into the current accepted history of Venice.
-
Many of the buildings, and their facades, appear to be brand new, or freshly renovated in these 19th century images. As always, I thank you so much for joining me today, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas about Venice, Carlo Ponti, and the Old World photographs in the comment section down below!
