Church of San Pantalon

This guide to the Church of San Pantalon in Venice opens with a dramatic legend about the painter Gian Antonio Fumiani and the enormous ceiling above the nave, then quietly takes it apart. It traces the twenty-four years Fumiani spent completing the work, and what a Victorian critic named John Ruskin later thought of it. Cross to the second chapel on the right as you listen, where Paolo Veronese's very last painting hangs.
