Venice and its Lagoon is on the world heritage site list under criteria i, ii, iii, iv, v and vi. It is a unique artistic achievement and has one of the highest concentrations of masterpieces in the world. Its influence on the development of architecture and monumental arts is considerable, first through its beautiful trading stations and once Venice lost some of its power, it had a massive influence on painting through great painters such as Bellini and Giorgione. Venice also displays a complete typology of medieval architecture that shows how it was adapted to the unique landscape of the 118 islands it is built upon.
