The 44 black-and-white photographs presented here have been
selected from the many pictures taken by Ferdinando Scianna on a
succession of visits made to Venice between May and June in 2016:
they take the form of notes, a series of precise annotations on the
course of daily life in a neighbourhood of the city. The result of
his work is a lucid and vivid photographic reportage on the Venice
Ghetto in the late spring of this year filled with initiatives
organized to mark the 500th anniversary of the setting up of the
first enclave for the segregation of Jews in the world, the one in
Venice. On March 29, 1516, the Senate of the Venetian Republic had
in fact decided that all the Jews present in the city should be
sent to live together in a courtyard of houses at Cannaregio.
