Verona under the Lion, 1600
Verona in 1600 is a prosperous provincial city governed from Venice, where new bastioned works and old Roman stones meet. The walk follows the river and the market heart past painted palazzi, river quays busy with wool and silk bales, medieval towers and Scaliger monuments to a high hillside view over the Adige.
34 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 12 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Verona as it stood in 1600 (“Verona”).
