San Trovaso

San Trovaso

The church of San Trovaso, which abbreviates the two saints, "Santi Gervasio e Protasio" is a church in the sestiere or neighborhood of Dorsoduro in Venice.

The church dates to at least the 1028. The present church was rebuilt by 1584. The architect was likely Francesco Smeraldi. The church was consecrated in 1637.

In the chancel are two canvases, "Adoration of the Magi" and "Expulsion of Joachim from the Temple" (before 1587) by Domenico Tintoretto, brought here from the church of Santa Maria Maggiore. The left rear chapel, commissioned by Antonio Milledonne, has a "Temptations of Saint Anthony Abbot" by Jacopo Tintoretto. In addition the "St. Chrysogonus on Horseback" (c. 1444) was painted by Michele Giambono. The "Cappella del Santissimo Sacramento" has a "Last Supper" by the elder Tintoretto. The second chapel to the right has a "Madonna and child in Glory" by Palma il Giovane.
