The history of the house
Casa Contarini dates back to the 18th century, around 1710. It was built in the Campo (place), just in front of the church – 1460 / 1464 – a rare, perfectly maintained example of gothic architecture. The heart of Cannaregio, into which we are about to step, is still a somewhat isolated region with its own unmistakable atmosphere. As one moves farther north, towards the Madonna dell’Orto, the canals and fondamente grow wider.
There is more space, more light, and yet a sense of diminished prosperity. The rhythms of life are slower and more communal than in the swirl of the city centre. The façade of Madonna dell’Orto has sloping sides and is in brickwork, divided in three parts.
The portal is surmounted by a pointed arch with white stone decorations portraying, on the summit, St. Christopher, the Madonna and the Archangel Gabriel by Nicolò di Giovanni Fiorentino and Antonio Rizzo. Under is a tympanum, in porphyry, supported by circular pilaster strips. The whole is included into a porch with Corinthian columns…
