The Lady and Mr. Foreign Giandri meet in a bar near the Campo Santa Maria Mater Domini. Inside there is also the writer and illustrator a certain Mr Mori.
Ms. Foreign : - (to Mr. Giandri ) one day you should tell me for the first edition of the carnival:)
Mr Giandri : - Oh well I am old, indeed, "ancient" but the first editions of the Carnival I still was not there :-))) There was not even the "flight of the Turkish" from the top of the tower. However remember when the flight was restored by the Campanile di San Marco was called "Flight of the Dove." He came down from the bell a gimmick that depicted a dove. In mid opened the belly of the dove and confetti came down and (possibly, but I do not remember the detail) sweets into the crowd.
Ms. Foreign : - How nice! Dobrebbe you write about this in the pages devoted to the Campanile di San Marco)
The Writer Illustrator : - As far as I can remember coming out only confetti. All in all, though, I preferred to fly, "CARRY" Angel because it reminded me more of the "machine" old and do not know why, it seemed more authentic the characters more or less known now down (well harnessed, course) from Paron de Vecio home.
Ms. Foreign : - "from Vecio Paron de casa! Sounds great in Venexiana!
The Writer Illustrator : - This morning I went a bit 'around to take some pictures but, to my regret, I have no fire.
Mr Giandri : I was "forced" to go to San Marco I (I had two recommendations to be removed in post). Piazza San Marco is already full, and the Carnival officially start until tomorrow! Along the way I had to squash two Winx walls, a dozen noblemen and noblewomen of Venice, about twenty masks and the whole fantasy Beagle Boys! Mr
Mori : - "squash"? I do not so violent .... :-)
Mr Giandri : - You know, when there is anxiety about going to pick up two recommendations, one of which won the auction with lots of Öphila (Vienna), I can not get stuck in a Cappannelli of a street because people are contemplating a display of carnival masks with "Made in China"!
The Writer Illustrator : - It 's the worst of the Carnival of Venice are all forms and trash from the East that, at most, have little to do with tradition. But so is ...
Ms. Foreign : - ma era in tabarro? Con il cappello alla Giuseppe Verdi?
Signor Giandri : - Ero in travestito in maschera! ( ride ) Nel senso che il tabarro lo porto d'inverno tutti i giorni, quindi mi sono mascherato con un giubbotto!
Lo Scrittore Illustratore : - Nei primi carnevali (dall'80 al 90 circa) mi ero fatto confezionare un bellissimo costume, al quale poi ci ho lavorato tanto su, da Carlo VII di Francia (quello di Giovanna d'Arco) che, però, molti confondevano con Enrico VIII.
La Signora Straniera : Meno male che non confondevano con Enrico III di Valois, quello che andò a letto con Veronica Franco, ( sorride ) the poet's talent
The Writer Illustrator : - Then, with the decline of the Carnival, I have never worn and was well packaged in a closet. Too bad.
Ms. Foreign : - ( con brio) No, we will organize a nice dinner at the French and can wear!
The Writer Illustrator : - now there is very little fantasy around is no need for expensive and yards of velvet trimmings to make a nice costume: I still remember a couple (male) with a dress and Leonardo da Vinci ' another, complete with a huge gilt frame, on the Mona Lisa. The nice thing was that while he "the" painted, she was tease! Fabulous!
