Francesco's Venice S01E03 - Sex

Episode Overview

In the 18th century, Venice was captivated by two passions: art and sensuality. Casanova's memoir, A History of My Life, chronicled his romantic adventures, catapulting him to fame. Meanwhile, as sex tourists flocked to the city under the guise of appreciating art, Canaletto painted stunning vistas that served as the era's luxurious postcards. The height of this indulgence was the Carnival masked ball, where societal divisions dissolved. Yet, amidst the flourishing hedonism, an impending catastrophe loomed on the horizon.
