The Carnival has a long history.
In the past the carnival started three days early with dances in the Corte del Fondaco dei Turchi. The Venetians loved dancing and many other places were popular for this activity the most famous of which is le Zattere.
People danced even in the courtyards of convents (permitted only until sunset). Some of these balls weren't free, as a painting by Gabriel Bella records - depicting a slice of Venetian life and its festivities. In it can be seen young people enjoying themselves dancing, a pipe smoker wearing a tricorn and musicians near the steps bringing joy to the party.
The Venice carnival was a magical time for everyone and involved the whole city. It broke all the rules of society and State and gave the average man the chance to lose himself in revelry.
This was an intense period for the Venetians as they donned their masks and wore their fanciful costumeSt. The Palace Courts brightened up day and night as they opened up their gates to all manner of parties, shows and musical eventSt.
Along the waterways, people would greet each other with a "Good morning Mrs Mask!". Personal identity, sex and social class were no more; all that mattered was taking part in the great illusion of the Carnival.
