Venice, VuftecT By Blecif |
Plague, Made Sacred Vewmf
Venice, during the Middle ag,«s*t
was much exposed to the rarragf*
of the black plague, owing to :ia»
commercial relationships with 'Sshe-.'
crowded and pestilence-strietoan;
towns of the Levant. Then, ditoswair
was regarded as a divine visitadtiMs
and punishment; men met the nffas
aster by vows and built ehußi&rs
to some influential saint.
As the result of this practice, t2ic
Adriatic coast is dotted with so crfr.
churches, recalls a writer its theLaE
Angeles Times. (
The famous Church of the Sakicf
celebrates the plague which caarenef
to the city in 1630. One year aficil
Quebec was taken by the Ehgfem
and while Winthrop was foundbogl
the city of Boston, Venice was ynsS
ending its fight with the bla k p
which first invaded the city in TSHSki
The people vowed that if Godf wmiki
deliver the city the church wcwzSd toe
built and it later witnessed ttor nmiH
of the plague and the fulfillment i/L
the vow.
The church was designed to
Palladian style by Longhena, a po->
pil of Palladio, and is not ungrarcfti.s
in its proportions.
Almost every object of art that it
contains bears reference to the jice
tilence. Everywhere are piotorva,
