A guide to the wonders of Venice, conveyed by means of an artist's
sketchbook Matthew Rice is a long-time observer and illustrator of
cities, buildings and all those who inhabit them, with an uncanny
ability to express the energy of a place through a few lines of ink
and splashes of paint. For years, Venice has been a source of deep
creative inspiration for him; and now, in Venice: A Sketchbook
Guide, he captures the highlights of this most beguiling of Italian
cities. Unsurprisingly, given his abiding passion for architecture,
Matthew provides a wealth of information about the 'stones' of
Venice, including an illustrated guide to the main building styles
of the city - Byzantine, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Modern -
and exemplars of its balconies, bridges and campaniles. Further
sections explore the city's sestieri - its six residential quarters
- as well as its history, paintings, festivals, wildlife and, not
least, its cicchetti and aperitivi. Following the same landscape
format as Matthew's real-life sketchbooks, Venice: A Sketchbook
Guide will combine enchanting watercolour illustrations with an
informed, personal and witty text, and promises to delight all
visitors to Venice, armchair or actual.
