Venice: Beauty and the 12 Maries

The carnival in Venice has a long history, dating to at least the 14th century. Over the centuries, and under different rulers, the Carnevale di Venezia went through many stages, sometimes forbidden and sometimes tolerated. The carnival we know today, with its many masked balls and costumed creatures floating across the city’s bridges and squares, dates only to the last 100 years.
