Venice Carnival

This photo from the Venice Carnival shows a person dressed in an elaborate costume, evoking the opulence and refinement of the Baroque period. The subject is wearing a detailed Venetian mask, adorned with gilded arabesques and an intricate pattern framing the eyes. On his head, an extravagant hat adorned with embroidered fabric and a miniature replica of the Basilica of San Marco symbolises his deep connection with the history and culture of Venice. The outfit is completed with a fur stole and a necklace of pearls and precious stones, adding an extra visual richness. Make-up with bright red lips contrasts with the pale complexion of the mask, adding a bold splash of colour. In the background, the blurred architecture and silhouettes of passers-by give a sense of authenticity and immersion in the festive atmosphere of Carnival.
