Palazzo Savorgnan is a palace in Venice, Italy, located in the Cannaregio district and overlooking Canale di Cannaregio , to the right of Palazzo Priuli Manfrin .
18-436: Built in the 17th century for the noble Savorgnan family, the palazzo is a project by Giuseppe Sardi , a Baroque architect of the nearby Palazzo Surian Bellotto , who was inspired by works of Baldassare Longhena . However, the architectural scholar Elena Bassi admits that the palazzo might have been designed by Giuseppe Gaspari due to the similarity of the building with Ca' Zenobio degli Armeni . Later, two wings were added to
36-399: A design of Father Giovanni Battista Bergonzoni (called Borgognone), a teacher of theology at the college attached to the church. Vasi claims that the façade was the design of Giovanni Battista Conti , while Titi attributes it to 'Ciacomo Ciolli’ (Giacomo Cioli) and Sardi jointly. In sum, there is no scholarly consensus on how exactly the work should be divided. A similar problem concerns
54-557: Is not to be confused with the Swiss Italian architect, Giuseppe Sardi (1624–1699) , who was active in Venice. In contemporary sources, Sardi is described more often as acting in the capacity of a capomastro or master builder rather than as an architect. He designed and executed only one church from scratch, that of Santa Maria del Rosario in 1712 in the Colonna family fiefdom of Marino , in
72-445: Is placed in the center of the ground floor covered with ashlar. The portal is flanked by single lancet windows. A large portego colonnade starts from the portal. The two noble floors have openings decorated by stone frames with masks and balustrades; both floors have large serlianas located at the center part of the façade with a pair of arched windows on each side. The second floor also has two large coats of arms. The attic, floor
90-477: Is planned symmetrically with the other floors, consisting of smaller squared windows. A recent restoration of the main façade underlined the stone and masonry details of the palazzo, revealing the modus operandi of construction workers of the part. In particular, the restoration revealed the ways in which the stone cornices and the masks were anchored—fixed not only with a joint with the wall but also with forged metal clamps in place. Other metal parts were used to fix
108-818: Is the addition of a new façade to the church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin in the Foro Boario in Rome. This façade was erected in place of the previous Romanesque façade in 1718, and destroyed in 1896 – 1899 but its appearance is recorded in Giuseppe Vasi 's Magnificenze di Roma (Plate 56) as well as in photographs . Also confirmed is Sardi's authorship of the façade of the Trastavere church of Santi Quaranta Martiri (also known as San Pasquale Baylon) (1736–39). This façade appears to have been modelled on that by Francesco Fontana for
126-634: The Alban Hills outside Rome. The interior is centrally planned and has an unusual and elaborately decorated dome. This is also his first known work. His work as capomastro is documented on the building sites of Santa Maria in Trastevere (where he worked under the direction of Recalcati in 1714), Santa Maria in Monticelli (where he worked under the direction of Sassi in 1715, about six years before his conjectured work on San Paolo alla Regola , located around

180-447: The attribution to Sardi of the facade of Santa Maria Maddalena which is significant as one of a limited number of facades in Rome displaying the Rococo style, The facade was begun in the late seventeenth century and was still unfinished in 1734.

198-465: The church of Santa Maria ad Nives, Rome (Santa Maria delle Neve), located near the Colosseum , and erected around 1708. More contentious are Sardi's contributions to two other churches that had new (or renovated) façades finished in the period between 1720 and 1740. The first of these projects was the construction of a new façade for San Paolo alla Regola , a church which had been erected around 1687 to

Sardi is also credited with one other minor work, the refurbishment of the baptistery of San Lorenzo in Lucina , executed between 1713 and 1721.

234-499: The façade. The first mention of Sardi's involvement is in the 1750 edition of Roisecco's guide book. Scholars have long been undecided who should be credited with this design which has also been attributed to Emanuele Rodriguez Dos Santos . Too little of Sardi's work survives to permit attribution on stylistic grounds.

270-468: The initial structure. In 1788, Palazzo Savorgnan was a victim of the serious fire, which damaged many parts, including the enormous eighteenth-century dormer and started a degradation process that lasted at least until the purchase of the structure by the Galvagna family in 1826. This family preserved a vast art gallery, with works of Palma il Vecchio and other great Venetian artists. The collection, however,
