PONTE STORTO

from $1,100.00

Venice, Italy

As I stood there, looking at the illuminated Ponte Storto spanning the canal's tranquil waters, I felt transported back in time. The single lamp, casting its inviting light, served as a beacon in the night, beckoning me to cross into a world of mystery and magic. I was drawn to the intimacy of the small plaza that surrounded the bridge, surrounded by the centuries-old buildings that rose tall and proud, cradling the secrets of a bygone era.

It is said that Ponte Storto, or "Crooked Bridge," was once an infamous haunt of notorious thieves and bandits. But as I gazed upon its weathered stone arches, the rough-hewn bricks, and the ancient lamps, I saw only beauty and timelessness. This tiny corner of Venice is a testament to the resilience of a city that withstood countless storms and tides yet persists with strength and steadiness.

In the soft light of the night, I was overwhelmed by a sense of serenity, as if I were the only person in the world at that moment, surrounded by the gentle lapping of the waters, the distant sounds of laughter and song, and the soulful whispers of history. I stood there, in that magical moment, a stranger no more but an inhabitant of a place that I would always hold dear to my heart.

Designed to evoke order in the chaos

There is always stillness to be found - even within bustling environments that heave with steel and cement and artificial light. Man-made elements that are so far from the natural beauty that normally brings us peace, can still be a source of internal harmony. How? Symmetry. Lines and space and light and shadow. These elements of design speak to our inner soul. These photos showcase the connectedness of the world in a symphonic web of streets, poles and buildings – unbreakable forms coming together in unexpected unity. They help us create order within the world and within ourselves.

Science tells us about the power of aesthetic pleasure

Well-tailored suits. Shiny cars. Intricate tile mosaics. It’s an odd trait of our species but clearly humans are drawn to pleasing aesthetics. We all know that beautiful things make us feel good. A piece of art - whether a building, an outfit or photograph - has the ability to uplift our day and sooth our anxious thoughts. Studies confirm that art promotes psychological well-being and even improves focus by enhancing our ability to perceptually engage with an object. That’s why it is so beneficial to bring art into the spaces where we work, live, socialize and seek rejuvenation. The positive rush we get when we look at a beautiful image can be a powerful moment that shapes each day.

Bring beauty into your home

Scientists have confirmed that viewing scenes of beauty in art can positively impact your health and well-being almost as effectively as visiting a beautiful environment. Art allows us to enjoy our morning coffee at a temple in Kyoto and cuddle up with our pets by the stunning canals of Venice. To spend our days in the bustle of the city and return home to the tranquility of a breathtaking view. Fine art photography is more than an image - it is your calm in the chaos, an uplifting breath on a troubling day, and the stillness to embrace your most authentic emotions and nurture your best self.
