Dal tempo della Repubblica di Venezia i maestri decoratori sapevano che per impreziosire muri e stanze dei magnifici palazzi veneziani, avrebbero dovuto lottare con una umidità perenne, la salinità dell'acqua la muffa che in posto come la laguna erano sempre presenti, la loro meticolosità nella scelta dei materiali e la maestria nelle mescolanze diede vita allo Stucco Veneziano un intonaco particolare che ancora oggi resiste in posti dove gli agenti atmosferici sono così aggressivi, questa magnifica arte è stata tramandata fino ai giorni nostri per fare in modo che tutti potessero trasformare la propria abitazione in una antica casa signorile Veneziana.
