La Palazzina Canonica a Venezia: le trasformazioni nel corso del Novecento / The "Palazzina Canonica" in Venice: the transformations during the 20th century

A first article dedicated to the "Palazzina Canonica" in Venice appeared in ARKOS (issue 19-20, July-December 2017). In that text were reported some historical events starting from 1911, the year of its construction; a description of the architecture and a series of boards, with detailed images, relating to the stone decoration in reference to the different parts of the building. This second article proposes the advance of the research showing, through an original iconographic apparatus, the transformations that mostly took place during the nineteenth century. In particular, the changes on the riparian buildings, the "Palazzina" and "Osservatorio della Pesca", in the course of the Thirties of the last century. The article describes the great building and landscape impact due to the construction of the "Riva dell'Impero" between 1934 and 1937 on the "Palazzina Canonica" and its surroundings.
