| Conservation: the Cappella Emiliani |
|
Venice in Peril has
responded to an urgent appeal from the Venetian
authorities to help with the 16th century
Cappella Emiliani attached to San Michele
on the cemetery island. Its marble walls and
dome were being assailed by rising damp and
rainwater, while the foundations are also
suspect. The cost of saving this exquisite
little building will be at least £250,000. |
