The illustration is pretty detailed, to explore what you could find inside a venetian house. The goal was drawing an environment that could be “realistic but not real”, that could host more than 30 objects, from Murano glass, to sculptures and prints, to gondolas.

To draw the environment and the elements of the room I have studied several venetian palaces and houses; drawings of the Vedutisti and venetian painters of the XVIIIc., such as Pietro Longhi and Gabriel Bella. It would be impossible to draw on location, due to the lockdown taking place in Italy since October 2020.
