The Venetian Baroque Monumental Memorial: Central Façade Relief of the Church of San Moisè in Venice (17th Century)
2615
Created during the Italian Baroque period, specifically executed between 1668 and 1682 as part of the total architectural and sculptural transformation of the church under architect Alessandro Tremignon and master sculptor Heinrich Meyring.
Architecturally and symbolically, it functions as a secular dynastic memorial and funerary monument dedicated to the Fini family (specifically Vincenzo Fini) integrated directly into a sacred church facade, merging personal aggrandizement with theatrical Baroque public art.
