Inside the largest private gothic palace in Venice

Palazzo Fortuny, the largest private gothic palace in Venice, was the home of Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo and Henriette Negrin, two artists, fashion designers and inventors with a style worthy of Arabian Nights sultans. Mariano and Henriette were partners in a business that gave the world more than 100 patents, ranging from the first silk pleated dress to a system for naval propulsion.
