Santa Maria Gloriosa Dei Frari
The Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari, usually just called the Frari, is a church located in the Campo dei Frari at the heart of the San Polo district of Venice, Italy. The largest church in the city, it has the status of a minor basilica. The church is dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. The imposing edifice is built of brick, and is one of the city's three notable churches still mostly retaining their Venetian Gothic appearance. In common with many Franciscan churches, the exterior is rather plain, even on the front facade. The exterior also features a bell tower that was fixed in the early 2000s after going through structural problems. The interior is notable for many very grand wall monuments to distinguished Venetians buried in the church, including a number of Doges and the painter Titian. Many of these are important works in the history of Venetian sculpture, and the many paintings include two large and important altarpieces by Titian, the '' Assumption of th ...

15th-century Italian Sculptors
The 15th century was the century which spans the Julian dates from 1 January 1401 ( MCDI) to 31 December 1500 ( MD). In Europe, the 15th century includes parts of the Late Middle Ages, the Early Renaissance, and the early modern period. Many technological, social and cultural developments of the 15th century can in retrospect be seen as heralding the "European miracle" of the following centuries. The architectural perspective, and the modern fields which are known today as banking and accounting were founded in Italy. The Hundred Years' War ended with a decisive French victory over the English in the Battle of Castillon. Financial troubles in England following the conflict resulted in the Wars of the Roses, a series of dynastic wars for the throne of England. The conflicts ended with the defeat of Richard III by Henry VII at the Battle of Bosworth Field, establishing the Tudor dynasty in the later part of the century.

Republic Of Venice Artists
A republic () is a "state in which power rests with the people or their representatives; specifically a state without a monarchy" and also a "government, or system of government, of such a state." Previously, especially in the 17th and 18th centuries, the term was used to imply a state with a democratic or representative constitution (constitutional republic), but more recently it has also been used of autocratic or dictatorial states not ruled by a monarch. It is now chiefly used to denote any non-monarchical state headed by an elected or appointed president. , 159 of the world's 206 sovereign states use the word "republic" as part of their official names. Not all of these are republics in the sense of having elected governments, nor is the word "republic" used in the names of all states with elected governments. The word ''republic'' comes from the Latin term ''res publica'', which literally means "public thing", "public matter", or "public affair" and was used to refer ...

Adam (Lombardo)
''Adam'' is an Italian Renaissance sculpture of c.1490–1495, a marble statue by Tullio Lombardo, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, which bought it in 1936. It is of prime importance as the first lifesize nude marble sculpture since antiquity, though Donatello's famous bronze ''David'' had preceded it by several decades. The sculpture was made as one of several subsidiary figures for the tomb of Doge Andrea Vendramin (d. 1478), which was later reconfigured. Previously it had passed through the Vendramin-Calergi family, remaining in the Palazzo Vendramin-Calergi in Venice when the Duchess of Berry Duke of Berry (french: Duc de Berry) or Duchess of Berry (french: Duchesse de Berry) was a title in the Peerage of France. The Duchy of Berry, centred on Bourges, was originally created as an appanage for junior members of the French royal family ... bought the palazzo in 1844.

Young Couple
''Young Couple'' is a c.1505-1510 Carrara marble relief sculpture by Tullio Lombardo, now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. It was previously known as ''Bacchus and Ariadne'', whilst a recent study by Claudia Kryza-Gersch has suggested the alternative title of ''The Singing Poet and His Lover''. It shows two busts on a rectangular background, drawing on similar works not only in ancient Roman funerary portraits but also North European double portrait paintings, the latter also sometimes adopted by Venetian painters in the early 16th century. Its mature classicism and the subjects' poetic mood also draws on paintings by Giorgione. A similar ''Double Portrait of a Young Couple'' is now in Venice's Galleria Franchetti. The possible depiction of its subjects as Bacchus and Ariadne seems to derive from Francesco Colonna's allegorical novel ''Hypnerotomachia Poliphili'', published in Venice in 1499 Year 1499 ( MCDXCIX) was a common year starting on Tuesday (link will display ...

Santa Maria Dei Miracoli, Venice
Santa Maria dei Miracoli is a church in the sestiere of Cannaregio, in Venice, Italy. Architecture and restoration Also known as the "marble church", it is one of the best examples of the early Venetian Renaissance including colored marble, a false colonnade on the exterior walls (pilasters), and a semicircular pediment. The organisation Save Venice Inc. restored the church over a period of seven years, from 1990 to 1997 (after several years of preliminary research). The treatments focussed on the marble sheeting and sculptural decoration of both the exterior and interior of the church. The marble cladding contained 14% salt, and was on the point of bursting, when restorers began the desalination and cleaning process. All marble cladding was removed, and cleaned in stainless steel tanks, in a solution of distilled water. Additionally, the campaign worked in the coffered ceiling, which was made up of fifty-two wooden panels depicting saints and prophets. The cleaning led to the redi ...

Marco Cornaro
Marco Cornaro (c. 1286 – 13 January 1368), also known as Marco Corner, was the 59th doge of Venice, ruling between 1365 and 1368. His brief reign saw the loss of Venetian territory to Genoa and the Ottoman Empire, though Venice was to enjoy economic growth during this time. Biography The Cornaro family to which the future doge was born was one of Venice's oldest, its lineage traceable to the Romans. It was also one of the richest, having achieved this status from money-lending. The Cornaros would produce three more doges in the 17th and 18th centuries. Marco Cornaro's first marriage was to Giovanna Scrovegni of Padua, with whom he had three sons and two daughters. His second marriage was to a woman named Caterina about whom little is known other than her low social status made his later election to the doge difficult. Dogaressa Caterina was somewhat mocked for her simple habits, which was not seen as suitable for the rank of a dogaressa, but he always defended her and called ...
