The Tourist in Venice: the band on the Piazza of St. Mark's, 1881. 'Urban palatial architecture, with the gorgeous splendours of St. Mark's Cathedral, and the opportunity of inspecting famous treasures of fine art, must be the chief enjoyment of the tourist here. The centre of his daily saunterings will naturally be the Piazza San Marco, or St. Mark's Place'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
