Barene by Marco Zito
The salt marshes of the Venice lagoon form a unique and priceless heritage, a fragile system of low-lying islands that host incredible biodiversity of both flora and fauna. With their varying levels, the salt marshes create ever-changing landscapes that vary with the slow rhythm of the tides.
