Venezia Unica
Judith
Cannaregio
After the fire in 1505, the Fondaco dei Tedeschi was reconstructed and decorated by Titian and Giorgione with monumental frescoes, now detached and much damaged, which became an essential point of reference for Venetian painting. Titian created the facade facing the Grand Canal, from which this Judith remains, an allegory of Venice ready to defend itself.
