520 8  Commissioned in 1750, the Palazzo Venier was planned as a 
       testimony to the power and wealth of a great Venetian 
       family, but the fortunes of the Venier family waned and 
       the project was abandoned with only one storey complete. 
       Empty, unfinished, and in a gradual state of decay, the 
       building was considered an eyesore. Yet in the early 20th 
       century the Unfinished Palazzo's quality of fairytale 
       abandonment, and its potential for transformation, were to
       attract and inspire three fascinating women at key moments
       in their lives: Luisa Casati, Doris Castlerosse and Peggy 
       Guggenheim. Each chose the Palazzo Venier as the stage on 
       which to build her own world of art and imagination, 
       surrounded by an amazing supporting cast, from d'Annunzio 
       and Nijinsky, via Noel Coward and Cecil Beaton, to Yoko 
       Ono.
