The night photograph captures the dramatic atmosphere of Rovinj under a stormy sky. The houses of the historic center, illuminated by warm lights, are reflected in the dark waters of the harbor, while the bell tower of St. Euphemia Church, 60 meters high and inspired by that of St. Mark in Venice, dominates the scene with its white illumination. Rain-laden clouds create an almost cinematic atmosphere, contrasting with the golden lights of the village. Rovinj, founded as a Roman settlement and later developed under Venetian rule, preserves intact the charm of past centuries.
