Ca' Pesaro, Baroque palace and art museum in Santa Croce, Venice, Italy
The four-story Ca' Pesaro presents white marble decorations on its facade, with massive stone figures supporting the balconies along the Grand Canal.
Construction of the palace started in 1659 under architect Baldassarre Longhena and concluded in 1710 through Antonio Gaspari's contribution after Longhena's death.
The International Gallery of Modern Art within Ca' Pesaro exhibits paintings by Gustav Klimt, Marc Chagall, and substantial collections of 19th and 20th-century artworks.
Visitors access the museum through the water entrance facing the Grand Canal or the land entrance, with exhibitions spread across multiple floors connected by wide staircases.
The palace basement contains original stone kitchens from the 1700s, complete with period cooking equipment and storage areas for supplies arriving by boat.
