San Giorgio Maggiore Basilica and Campanile

The Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore and its campanile sit on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice's lagoon. The photograph shows the brick bell tower and pale stone façades against a wide dusk sky, with dark blue-gray water filling the foreground. A thin band of warm light on the horizon outlines the roofline and a few sailboat masts punctuate the left edge.
