Description
The Dogana da Mar is the old Customs House that previously controlled all boats entering the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy. The building was completed in the 15th Century and now houses an art museum. On top of the building are statues of two Atlases holding a bronze globe. The Statue of Fortune stands on top of the globe and acts like a weather vane, turning in the wind.
