It is located at the head of the Gulf of Trieste and throughout history it has been influenced by its location at the crossroads of Latin, Slavic, and Germanic cultures. This view taken form the Grand Canal shows several vesssels on the water, numerous figures on the quay and the Carciotti palace to the left. After Philipe Benoist (1813-1880), with titles in French and Italian.
