Pound's apartment viewed from the Ogni Santi. His room is at the top of the little building in the center of the shot, next to the walled garden. The shed on the left is a gondola repair shop, the "squero", or boat-builder's shop, that Pound refers to.
"Well, my window . . . looked out on the Squero where Ogni Santi . . . meets San Trovaso . . . things have ends and beginnings." ~Ezra Pound, Canto LXXVI
Pound wrote his first book of verse, A Lume Spento, in this apartment, according to my information.
