View
across the Canale San Marco
The facade
is based on two intersecting temples; a tall classical porch, reflecting
the nave, is superimposed on a low broad one, reflecting the side-aisle
roofs. The facade forecasts Baroque architecture in its use of niches with
sculpture and strongly projecting engaged columns. |

The
interior
The rational
interior has a sculptural quality, achieved by the use of both engaged columns
and pilasters, sometimes coupled. |
