CÀ REZZONICO, Palace

Hi, I'm Alyson, your personal guide. Together with MyWoWo, I'd like to welcome you to one of the wonders of the world.

Today I'll accompany you through Ca' Rezzonico, which is one of the most typically Venetian palaces in the city!

Do you like Vivaldi's symphonies, Goldoni's spirited comedies, Giambattista Tiepolo's paintings full of imagination, or Canaletto's landscapes, which are so clear they look like photographs? The Rezzonico family palace and museum you are about to visit will take you back in time to the 18th century. Even if it was the century that marked the end of the Republic of Venice, the 18th century was also extraordinary for its art, culture, theater, luxury, and worldliness!

You've surely already admired the palace while passing it on the Grand Canal: can you imagine a better place for hosting 18th-century paintings, furniture, and objects? The collections come from various dismantled residences, but everything is placed as if it's always been part of the palace's furnishings. Consider also that the collections are continuously added to and modified, especially on the second and third floors....
