The area
Neighbourhood: Dorsoduro / Accademia
Artsy is the defining mood of this neighbourhood with street artists, students, painters, sculptors, restorers, curators, historians, collectors, heirs and heiresses rubbing elbows. Peggy Guggenheim's collection, now a museum, lures chic locals for evening art aperitifs. Traditionalists and visionaries cocoon in bohemian luxury. La Salute basilica buttresses the neighbourhood to the east. Gondolas bob in the morning light. The Accademia Bridge crosses the Grand Canal. A back street doubles as basketball court. Palaces house residents, or like Ca' Foscari a university, or a museum like Ca’ Rezzonico that attracts Venetians for concerts. Dorsoduro reveals its industrial roots too, in buildings converted to house university departments or exhibitions. Campo Santa Margherita bursts with youthful energy from local students. Foot traffic bustles to and from Piazzale Roma and Santa Lucia train station. Evening commuters pause for an aperitivo. Neighbours exchange confidants in a campo (square) on their way to market.

This bridge across the Rio de S. Trovaso close to Gallery Accademia is constructed of brick, stone, plaster, and paved with trachyte. The railing is of iron with stone pillars for support. It is not handicap accessible. The name derives from two folk tales, one that the bridge was so beautifully built overnight by unknown hands, the other tale is of seven sisters, 6 beautiful and one not so. One night 7 stars appeared in the sky, 6 bright. Slowly through the night the dim one became more bright, finally becoming the brightest and such that the ugly sister had overnight also become the most beautiful.
