Santa Maria della Fava, Venice
The church of Santa Maria della Fava, which comprises a nave flanked by side chapels, was begun in 1705 by Antonio Gaspari and completed, albeit minus a façade, by Giorgio Massari. Santa Maria della Fava is home (first chapel on the right) to a beautiful painting of the Education of the Virgin (1732) by Giambattista Tiepolo.
