Murano, Italy 1 July 2009
Lamp work in Murano.
Murano island is in the Venetian Lagoon. It lies about a mile north of Venice and is famous for its glass making, particularly lampworking.
The Venetian Lagoon is the enclosed bay of the Adriatic Sea in which the city of Venice is situated. Its name in the Venetian language, Laguna Veneta - cognate of Latin lacus, "lake" - has provided the international name for an enclosed, shallow embayment of saltwater, a lagoon.
