The Knight Mario Piccinni started the dynasty of photographers about a hundred years ago: thanks to a lottery win with a trio, he opened a photography lab. He soon became the official photographer of the Fascio, but in '44 a group of partisans drowned him in the river at Casale sul Sile.
His wife Emma and their two daughters Rosanna and Giovanna decided to continue the business, managing the shop in Piazza Indipendenza, keeping Mario’s memory alive. The same year, during the tragic bombing on April 7, the historical archive with his photographs was also destroyed. In 1971, Giovanna, nicknamed Tina, moved the shop to Via San Michele. She then passed it on to two long-time collaborators: Luigi Brunello and Danilo Marton. The current owners took it over only in 2004, drawing on their experience as employees. They also bought what remained of the archive and what was subsequently collected by the Piccinni family.
Foto Piccinni offers different services such as reporting for events, studio sessions, architectural photography, images printed on canvas and other materials.
