About the Item

Before starting his career as an architect, Scarpa worked for more that ten years as artistic director at the Venini glass works where he gained an exceptional knowledge of raw materials which would stand him in good stead in his future career. His work as an architect was for a great part involved in his much loved home city of Venice where he combined both the ancient and the modern worlds. It is probably for his handling of ancient buildings in the forms of renovations for which he is best remembered, though there were also many new commissions and probably the Brion tomb complex is the best known.
