Mariano Fortuny founded this textile factory on the Giudecca in 1921 on the grounds of an old convent, and his printed cottons are still made here with a secret process: by the founder's will no outsider enters the production floor. The boutique on the Giudecca Canal and the walled garden are a calm hour that very few visitors plan for.
