Sisley ad on the Bridge of Sighs

Controversial sponsors in Venice

What do you think? Are you for or against? We’d like to find out your opinion on the new billboard advertisements covering cultural monuments in Venice.

The adverts are being used to help pay for important renovation work. Examples include a Sisley poster on the Bridge of Sighs (pictured) and a Swatch advert covering the Museo Correr.

Inspired idea or a step too far? We want your thoughts! Visit our poll in the right-hand column of our Museum Strategy Blog and have your say in the debate.
