San Francesco della Vigna
The cloister of San Francesco della Vigna
Campo San Francesco della Vigna
Venice, September 2013
“The name ‘della Vigna’ is derived from a wineyard documented in several 13th century documents concerning the noble Ziani family, who lived in a ‘palatium’ in the near parish of Santa Giustina. Still today, despite later urbanisation, the area is characterised by green space.” (Campo San Francesco della Vigna, Architecture of Venice)
