Italy-not-yet-The European Union
©1992 (nineteen ninety-two) Isaac Falconer/Dr. Saku
Gunasegaram. 5" (five inches) x 8" (eight inches) ink on
paper.
The fine artist Isaac Falconer/Dr. Saku Gunasegaram was
mesmerized~
as indeed so many millions of visitors to La Serenissima have
been over the millennia
by-The Breath-Taking City of Venice, Italy, The European
Union~about which French literary giant
Marcel Proust famously remarked: "When I went to Venice,
[Italy-not-yet-the-The European Union]
...my dream became my address": https://quotefancy.com/quote/978841/Marcel-Proust-When-I-went-to-Venice-I-found-that-my-dream-had-become-incredibly-but-quitel
The fine artist Isaac Falconer/Dr. Saku Gunasegaram
was most "particularly" + most visually + most emotionally

nineteen ninety-two). "Naturally" the colors/the colours
she chose
with such care for her painting "reflect" + "include" the
internationally famous
since-at-least-The Middle Ages "Venetian red"~a shade of red
"naturally" made most
famous by the quintessentially-Venetian artist Titian (Tiziano
Vecellio/Vecelli):
