   1. A long, narrow boat with a high prow and stern, used in
      the canals of Venice. A gondola is usually propelled by

      poling. A gondola for passengers has a small open cabin
      amidships, for their protection against the sun or rain. A
      sumptuary law of Venice required that gondolas should be
      painted black, and they are customarily so painted now.
