Perfect, in its prime, was the marble Ca'd'Oro, with the noble recesses of its <i>loggie</i>, but even then it probably never "met a want," like the successful <i>vaporetto<i>. If, however, we are not to go into the Museo Civico the old Museo Correr, which rears a staring renovated front far down on the left, near the station, so also we must keep out of the great vexed question of steam on the Canalazzo, just as a while since we prudently kept out of the Accademia.
All one's senses indeed are vigorously attacked; the whole place is violently hot and bright, all odorous and noisy. The churning of the screw of the <i>vaporetto</i> mingles with the other sounds not indeed that this offensive note is confined to one part of the Canal.
There are of course two ways of taking it from the water or from the upper passage, where its small shops and booths abound in Venetian character; but it mainly counts as a feature of the Canal when seen from the gondola or even from the awful <i>vaporetto</i>. The great curve of its single arch is much to be commended, especially when, coming from the direction of the railway- station, you see it frame with its sharp compass-line the perfect picture, the reach of the Canal on the other side.
