| description | |
| Central to the understanding of Venetian painting of the eighteenth century is the church of San Stae (Sant'Eustachio), which expresses unity and harmony. It presents a magnificent facade, open on the main canal in Venice, the Grand Canal, and enriched by an ornately decorated plastic to which sculptors like Joseph Torretto, Antonio Tarsia, Peter Baratta and Antonio Corradini have greatly contributed. The interior, work of the late ‘700, reveals the clear reminiscences of the Palladian architect John Grassi. It is made up of a single aisle and three chapels open on each side; the church is in the centre of a grand tombstone, which marks the tomb of the family Mocenigo. | |
