When I'm not in Venice I'm thinking and reading about Venice.
I found this treasure in a local bookshop....in Morristown NJ...the Old Bookshop.
It's an oversized book 16" X 20"...published in 1894.
It's written & profusely illustrated by F. Hopkinson Smith....a young lady that traveled to
Venice.
It's one of my favorite books!!
I think I'll go and leisurely read a chapter and look at her incredible ink drawings and oil paintings.
I'm partial to the ink drawings they are so detailed and full of life!!
