A gondolier rows his gondola across the Grand Canal in the fog in Venice
A gondolier rows his gondola across the Grand Canal in the fog in Venice February 8, 2011. Venetians woke up on Monday to find that one of the symbols of their world famous lagoon city -- the Grand Canal -- had been stolen. It seems that a new national law intended to get rid of old, out-of-date provisions that have been on the books since Italy was a monarchy also transferred ownership of the canal from the city to the national government.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by Manuel Silvestri on February 8,2011, a gondolier fearlessly rows his gondola across the mystical Grand Canal in Venice. The city is enveloped in a thick blanket of fog, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Venetians woke up that day to an unexpected shock - one of their most cherished symbols had seemingly vanished overnight. A new national law aimed at modernizing outdated regulations inadvertently transferred ownership of the iconic canal from the city to the national government. This unforeseen turn of events left locals bewildered and concerned about the future fate of their beloved waterway. Despite this unsettling news, life goes on for our determined gondolier as he skillfully navigates through the misty waters. His solitary figure stands out against the ethereal backdrop, symbolizing resilience and continuity amidst uncertainty. The image evokes a sense of timelessness and tranquility that is synonymous with Venice itself. It serves as a reminder that even when faced with unexpected challenges or changes beyond our control, there are those who continue to carry on traditions and preserve what makes their home truly special. Silvestri's photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects upon larger themes such as politics, society, transport, travel, and environmental concerns - all intricately woven into Venetian life along its historic canals.
