Scuola San Rocco

Museum, Venice

If you're looking for traces of the famous painter Tintoretto, you should plan a visit to the Scuola Grande di San Rocco.

Its famous interior decoration includes 56 of his paintings alone, which are considered the crowning achievement of his career.

In 1564, Tintoretto won the commission to decorate the Sala dell'Albergo in the Scuola through a ruse. Thirteen years later, he offered to decorate the entire building in exchange for an annual pension of 100 ducats for life.

It is therefore well worth taking a look at these exceptionally impressive paintings.
