| Church of San Moisè, San
Marco. This is one of the oldest churches in Venice. Founded in the 8th
century and consecrated originally to San Vittore, it was rebuilt in
947 under the patronage of patrician Moisè Venier who named it
after his patron saint. The main altar, shown in the picture, is
believed to have been designed by Tremignon. It was executed by Meyring
in the second half of the 18th century. It depicts Moises receiving the
Tablets of Law. |
