The Riva Schiavoni, the Doge's Palace and the Campanile di San Marco at Venice, Italy. The photographer is looking west-north-west from the Riva Ca' do Dio showing various passenger vessels and tugs, including the salvage tug Ursus (1918) berthed alongside finger jetties bow-on to the Riva Schiavoni. The column fronted Chiesa Santa Maria della Pieta is on the right with the Hotel Metropole alongside it. The Doge's Palace is to the left of centre with the Campanile di San Marco beyond it. The Campanile is the bell tower of St Mark's Basilica located in the Piazza San Marco and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the city. The entrance to the Grand Canal is on the left.
