This is a travel poster for the German market.\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 27.5 in x 20 in (70 cm x 50 cm)\u003cbr\u003eA travel poster printed in Italy in the 1960s by the Italian State Railways and Tourist Board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiazza San Marco is the principal public square of Venice, Italy, where it is generally known just as la Piazza (\"the Square\"). All other urban spaces in the city (except the Piazzetta and the Piazzale Roma) are called campi (\"fields\"). The Piazzetta (\"little Piazza\/Square\") is an extension of the Piazza towards San Marco basin in its south east corner and they form the social, religious and political centre of Venice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVenice is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. It is built on a group of 118 small islands that are separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges.[4][5] The islands are in the shallow Venetian Lagoon, an enclosed bay lying between the mouths of the Po and the Piave rivers. The name is derived from the ancient Veneti people who inhabited the region by the 10th century BC. The city was historically the capital of the Republic of Venice for over a millennium, from 697 to 1797.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the FAQ for more information on shipping, tracking and insurance options.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lampposted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57206166094211,"sku":"LNJ6V","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8538\/7139\/files\/il_fullxfull.3175218446_lra4.jpg?v=1768962819","url":"https:\/\/lampposted.com\/products\/1960s-venice-travel-poster-st-marks-73343","provider":"Lampposted","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
