Venice - Santa Maria Assunta I Gesuiti
|
|
The church, dating from the 13th century, was sumptuously rebuilt between 1714 and 1729 by Domenico Rossi in the Roman Baroque style for the Jesuits.
With its barrel-vaulted single nave, side-chapels, transept and choir, the church has an imposing and elaborate interior: walls clad with green and white marble, massive pillars and colonnades, gilding, and a High Altar with a baldachin and sculptured retable.
