This conversation is suitable for all ages.
90 minutes, including a 30 minute Q&A.
Mr. Gabbrielli covered all the key aspects of Islamic influences in Venice in an detailed yet generalized way so that we could understand. His attention to details showing Islamic presence and influence in the art works was particularly appreciated. Additionally as was apparent from the Q&A period, he has an immense knowledge about Venetian history.
Fascinating seminar. Matteo is an excellent presenter and very well organized and easy to follow.
I was really happy to follow the conversation by Matteo Gabrielli on the influence of Islam in Venice. It was a different take on a well known destination that opens up for more thoughts and studies as well as fresh perspectives on the intertwined relationships of the past. Interesting comparisons between different and yet similar architectural styles with nice images as visual support.
We’ve been to Venice many times - I learned a lot of new information in this presentation
This was very well organized and informative. Slides were helpful.
