Description
Venice, The Frari's Basilica. Bell tower.
The Romanesque bell tower is 70 metres high and is the highest in Venice after San Masco. Construction was started by Venetian Jacopo Celega (1361) and completed by his son Pier Paolo in 1396.
Halfway up the tower, on the side which looks towards the canal, the MADONNA WITH THE CHILD, in white stone, and, beneath, St FRANCIS ABOUT TO RECEIVE THE STIGMATA can be admired.

Neat. The tower is remarkable, but I have admit a certain attraction to the balcony and chimneys in the foreground,. All in all, quite a view.
Good capture!
Wonderful tower! Your gallery has many fine historic & architecture photos, very inspiring!
