Paolo Brandolisio replacing a new rudder with a gondola oar or remo in his workshop in Venice in northern Italy. To make or repair the ore or an oar-lock, there are only a very few gondola oar carvers in Venice, and Paolo Brandolisio is one of them. Hidden away in the back narrow streets, a stone’s throw from St. Mark's Square is his small workshop, stacked with poles ready to be crafted into oars and some are in for repairs. Paolo works alone and he has been in the business since leaving school at 14. He has been carving and repairing oars for 34 years since he was trained under the guidance of the late Giuseppe Carli. Giuseppe Carli is recognised as one of Venice’s foremost Remeri – an artisan elite group of Venetian fórcoli carvers, with most of Carli’s larger works owned by private collectors or showcased in museums. A forcola is an oarlock used on the gondolas of Venice, whose curved surfaces provide different resting points for the boat’s oar.
