Scuola Grande dei Carmini
Scuola Grande dei Carmini, Baroque art museum and confraternity building in Campo Santa Margherita, Venice, Italy.
The Scuola Grande dei Carmini displays a white Istrian stone facade with black wrought iron balustrades overlooking Campo Santa Margherita in the Dorsoduro district.
The confraternity, established in 1594 under Doge Pasquale Cicogna, moved to its current location in 1627 and received recognition as a Scuola Grande in 1767.
The capitular hall contains nine ceiling canvases painted by Giambattista Tiepolo between 1739 and 1749, depicting theological and cardinal virtues related to the Virgin Mary.
The museum opens daily from 11:00 to 16:00, with entrance fees contributing to the preservation of its artistic heritage and architectural elements.
The archive rooms feature intricate woodwork with caryatids designed by Giacomo Piazzetta and paintings by Giustino Menescardi depicting religious and biblical scenes.
