San Giorgio Maggiore

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 front and detail of the central classical "temple" element echoing the nave of the three-aisled church.
 
The interior
The rational interior has a sculptural quality, achieved by the use of both engaged columns and pilasters, sometimes coupled.
