Palazzo Bolani Erizzo is an ancient Venetian palace of the 13th century, built along the Grand Canal in the Cannaregio district. It stands wall to wall with Palazzo Dolfin.[1][2][3]
The palazzo was the ancient residence of the poet Pietro Aretino[4] in the 16th century,[5] and in the early 19th century the palace was bought by the Levi family. After the World War One, the engineer Gino Vittorio Ravà, a builder, resided there, who built the Scalzi bridge in Venice and invented the restoration system using the hydraulic jack method. During the World War Two, the palazzo was rented for a short time by poet Filippo Tommaso Marinetti who in 1944 founded the futurist association Cannaregio 5662.
