When I viewed this gorgeaus 'masquerade' series on Elisa's website (visioluxus.com), I couldn't help but be reminded of my very own visit to Venice so many years ago. The carnival, or Carnevale, is Venice's answer to Mardi Gras and Fasching. For eight days before Lent each winter, tourists flood the city for an orgy of pageants, commedia dell'arte, concerts, balls, and masked self-display until Shrove Tuesday signals an end to the party. The play with movement and the lack of light, combined with the erotic senses of the Carnevale of Venice make 'masquerade' fascenating, mysterious and above all erotic.
