Inscriptions
English: Year by year Venice is slowly falling into decay as it sinks into the mud of its lagoon. Many of the buildings are falling into ruins, simply because they are uninhabited. Venice's heritage is threatened by storms which are causing more and more flooding in the city. Swift currents eat at the city's foundation. Humidity and air pollution are causing paintings and the city's marble to deteriorate. UNESCO, on 2 December 1966, launched a campaign for the safeguarding of Venice and has commenced a large-scale study of the Venitian problem as a whole. San Giorgio church
Français : Venice se dégrade d'année en année et s'enfonce progressivement dans la lagune. Ses édifices prennent lentement des allures de ruines parce que personne n'y habite. Les inondations successives et les courants trop rapides érodent la base des bâtiments. L'humidité et la pollution de l'air altèrent les marbres et les peintures. L'UNESCO a lancé, le 2 décembre 1966, un appel pour a sauvegarde de Venise et vient d'établir une importante étude sur l'ensemble des problèmes. L'église San Giorgio.
