Venice Map Art

Venice's map is defined by the Grand Canal, an inverted S-curve that divides the city into two unequal halves and connects the Rialto Bridge to San Marco Basin. The surrounding streets form a dense medieval maze without grid logic, following the edges of filled canals and ancient parish boundaries. The lagoon itself—shallow water dotted with smaller islands like Murano and Burano—frames the entire settlement, accessible only by water or the modern causeway that connects to the mainland.
