Dior has announced the restoration of Venice’s Porta Magna, underscoring its ties to Venice. The answer to the Prince of Venice, its direct competitor Pinault.
In April, the French fashion house announced that it was collaborating with the Venetian Heritage Foundation on a charity ball to help fund the restoration work on the monument and ongoing renovations to the Ca’ d’Oro museum.
It has now revealed the first images of the imposing gate located in the Venetian Arsenal, a complex of former shipyards and armories. A sculpture of the Lion of St. Mark, emblem of the Venetian Republic, crowns the mid-15th-century building.
Hoping that this will be the stargate for the group, The Lord and the Temptation of Venice quite a program!
