Venetian palazzos in soft cream, pale yellow, and muted green line a tranquil canal, their ornate Gothic windows and weathered facades reflected in the still waterway below. A traditional gondola with its characteristic felze shelter rests at the water's edge, anchored by a striped mooring pole, capturing the timeless elegance of this drowsy Italian city. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
