This will take us to Ponte Borgoloco. Its wrought iron railing is said to represent an acronym for Viva (long live) Vittorio Emanuele. Vittorio Emanuele, King of Italy, visited Venice in 1866 when the bridge underwent its last reconstruction." You read it (probably) on aloverofvenice.com. The bridge is in Castello, quite near to Campo Santa Maria Formosa.
