Lido Striped Shirt

Shirts in Venice.

At the beach on the Lido in Venice.

An Italian bathing beauty jogs by with her clipped poodle, then two lovers, their hands in each others’ pockets, and…ah, yes, another gent wearing a shirt like this.

Several sightings of this shirt per day aren’t uncommon on the Lido.

It was born here, on Europe’s first fashionable beach. The stripes are the same stripes you observe on the umbrellas, on the beach towels, on the snooty cabanas up and down the shore.

The stripes speak of the sea. Freedom, they say.

Pleasure. Youth.

Too late for Gustave von Aschenbach. Not too late for you and me.
