Although stripped of the ornamentation from which it derives its names (oro is gold), this delicate, floral, Gothic creation is stunning, both in terms of its façade and what lies within. Above the magnificent mosaic-paved inner courtyard, the Galleria Franchetti has a fine St Sebastian by Mantegna, The Alchemist by Jan Seen, The Tower of Babel by Jan van Scorel, Portrait of Procurator Nicolo Priuli by Tintoretto, and a Sleeping Venus and cupid by Paris Bordone.
