The monumental sculpture shown is "Support" (2017) by contemporary Italian artist Lorenzo Quinn. This detailed photograph captures a large-scale public art installation in Venice, featuring two massive, white, child-like hands emerging from the deep green waters of the Grand Canal. The hands are positioned as if they are literally supporting and bracing the historic, salmon-colored facade of the Ca' Sagredo Hotel. One hand grips the corner of the ornate building while the other reaches up against its side, set against a backdrop of sunlit Venetian architecture and traditional wooden mooring poles lining the canal.
