Not illustrated. 1867 edition. Excerpt: ... Fondaco De' Turchi, I. 319.; II. 119. 121. 237. The opposite plate, representing three of its capitals, has been several times referred to.

The lower palaces at the side of this building are said by some to have belonged to the younger Foscari. See " Giustiniani." Francesco Della Vigna, ChuRCH Of St. Base Renaissance, but must be visited in order to see the John Bellini in the Cappella Santa.
