Photo Gallery | Article | Previous | 11 of 43 | Next	The side door in the last photo leads into the church through this huge baroque monument to Giovanni Pesaro, Doge of Venice for just two years (1658-9). To its left is an unusual pyramid monument to architect Antonio Canova (1757-1822), who designed it to be Titian's monument. Glimpsed on the right is Titian's Ca' Pesaro Madonna, painted 1519-26.
