Venice has always attracted distinguished visitors. Luminaries such as Lord Byron, John Ruskin, Richard Wagner, James McNeil Whistler and Robert Browning all spent time in Venice and left vivid accounts of their time there. John Julius Norwich provides a portrait of the city they discovered.

Looking up from the end point of Norwich's history of Venice, this book looks at Venice's many distinguished vistors. Luminaries such as Lord Byron, John Ruskin, George Sand and Alfred de Musset, Edward Lear, Turner and Robert Browning all spent time in Venice and left fascinating and vivid accounts of their time there.
