Redentore's
Church:
Between the 1575 and the 1577 plague killed almost fifthy thousands people
in Venice; the fourth of September 1576 Serenissima's senate decided to
build a church dedicated to the Redeemer and the first stone was laid the
third of May 1577. This church dominates the Giudecca's view and results
to be a Palladio's thought about the entire classical architecture of the
Renaissance, the attempt of join the Cristian Church with all the elements
of a classical temple. A classical pediment dominates the facade and a stair,
as wide as the dome's diameter (that is the unit of the entire building)
symbolizes through its fifteen steps the ascent to the Jerusalem's temple.
Interior, having a longitudinal plan, is perfect to be used for processions:
a main nave with deep lateral chapels, covered with a barreil vault and
lightened by windows; a wide presbitery joined to the nave through a big
arch and finally a rectangular choir. |
Guggenheim
Museum:
the building should have characterized with its magnificence the last
part of Gran Canal: these were at least the purposes of the first owner
who built it in the eighteenth century. The building joins Gran Canal
with the channel on the rear part with two wings closing a rectangular
courtyard in wich should have hosted wild animals (this explains the name
of the building: leoni means lions!). Actually only the ground floor facing
the Gran Canal was built using a white stone called "Pietra d'Istria":
on the rear side there's the garden. Building was bought in this century
by american collector Peggy Guggenheim, and became soon one of the most
important place for contemporary works. Exhibiting masterpieces by Kandinsky,
Pollock, Ernst, Chagall, Dalì and many others.

Zitelle's
Church: the real name of this place is Santa Maria della Presentazione
and the complex joins the church, the ancient convent and the orphan's institute
famous since the eighteenth century for the lace's production. The classical
influences on the facade proves the partecipation of Andrea Palladio to
the first project, brought it to a conclusion by Jacopo Bozzetto in the
1586. The imposing main dome leans in the inner part of the church on great
Corinthian columns making it agree with the church's remake of the eighteenth
century. Zitelle's temple keeps a precious work by Jacopo Palma il Giovane
(L'orazione nell'orto) and on the main altar La Presentazione della Vergine
al Tempio, a work of uncertain attribution among Francesco and Leandro Bassano. |
