Bertuzzi is not at all unhappy that his photographs should project such a traditional image of the lagoon city. He is interested in a Venice beyond time that is as near as possible to the Venice of Ponti, Naya and of course Canaletto. It is Bertuzzi’s aim to compose a faultlessly accurate, detailed illustrated atlas of the Venetian universe, not some fatuous photo album for lovers of hackneyed sentimentality.
