Venice art tour to great museums

This is a walking tour in San Polo and Dorsoduro districts to discover Venice artistic heritage. Venice art tour is perfect for art lovers and focuses on the visit to three magnificent museums:

• the huge Frari church treasures amazing sculptures and paintings. Frari is a contraction of “Franciscan Friars”;
• Cà Rezzonico, a palazzo over the Grand Canal, brings you into XVIII century, the fabulous age of Baroque.
• Accademia Galleries, the most important collection of Venetian paintings, counts with breathtaking art from XV and XVI centuries.

With this tour I want to share with you my passion for art and make you enjoy Venetian painters, famous for their range of colours, realistic rendering and local landscape.

An artistic journey

Venice art tour develops in a chronological order with the visit to the Frari, a huge Franciscan church that shrines unique funerary monuments and masterpieces by Titian. I will keep your attention alert while we move through the centuries, changing contests and meeting differtent artists.

Cà Rezzonico

Cà Rezzonico was the elegant home to one of the richest families in town. The visit is the chance to see interior decor in VXIII century Venice, made of elaborated furniture, tapestry and frescoes. Here is also possible to admire works by Canaletto, Guardi, Longhi and Tiepolo.
