People crossing the pontoon bridge over the Grand Canal on 21 November sometime in the 1920s.
What the pontoon bridge over the Grand Canal during #festadellasalute looked like in the 1920s. In the background, you can make out trabaccolo boats.

Little bouquets of autumn flowers (dried sea lavender), mixed with flowers from the florist, on a white table next to a dark Venetian-red painted wall on the terrace.
