Venetian Gondolier and Gondola

A gondolier stands at the stern of a Venetian gondola, pushing the boat along a narrow canal beside an aged palazzo. The black-and-white image shows deep midtones, rippled water reflections in the foreground and a textured stone-and-plaster facade filling the upper frame. The gondolier tips a straw hat while two passengers sit at the bow, one holding up a phone.
