Masked, the Venetian ones could then transgress the rules of the company… The end of the Venetian republic, in XVIIIe, failed to be right of this tradition, and it is only since years 1970 that the city started again this event.

Poetic contrast Today,
The carnival of Venice found its last splendour and always attracts a number crescent of tourists. To admire the most beautiful costumes, composed of a white mask for the men “bauta” and of an oval black velvet mask for the women “moretta”, like of the “Tabarro”, a long black cape, to prefer a stay at the time of the opening or the carnival closure. And for the in love ones, better is worth to choose one period calmer (and less cold) for one strolls romantic in gondole…
