The Venice Carnival every year attracts thousands of people from all over the world.
 The inhabitants of Venice have always  been fond of masks, so much so that in the old days when the city was a superpower,  its  people  often  used to go around in disguise and this, of course, in order to deceive or conceal one’s identity.
  The above video shows  masks from the Venice Carnival 2010.
