Lucia, Church of St. Of no importance.
M
Maddalena, Church of Sta. Maria. Of no importance.
Malipiero, Palazzo, on the Campo St. M. Formosa, facing the canal at its extremity. A very beautiful example of the Byzantine Renaissance. Note the management of color in its inlaid balconies.
Manfrini, Palazzo. The architecture is of no interest; and as it is in contemplation to allow the collection of pictures to be sold, I shall take no note of them. But even if they should remain, there are few of the churches in Venice where the traveller had not better spend his time than in this gallery; as, with the exception of Titian’s “Entombment,” one or two Giorgiones, and the little John Bellini (St. Jerome), the pictures are all of a kind which may be seen elsewhere.
Mangili Valmarana, Palazzo, on the Grand Canal. Of no importance.
Manin, Palazzo, on the Grand Canal. Of no importance.
Manzoni, Palazzo, on the Grand Canal, near the Church of the Carità. A perfect and very rich example of Byzantine Renaissance: its warm yellow marbles are magnificent.
Marcilian, Church of St. Said to contain a Titian, “Tobit and the Angel:” otherwise of no importance.
