Renaissance architecture in Venice

Venetian Renaissance architecture began later than in Florence, not before the 1480s, and throughout the period it was carried out by architects from other parts of Italy. Compared with the Renaissance architecture of other Italian cities, there was a certain degree of conservatism, especially in the conservation of the general form of the buildings and in the windows, in which arched or rounded finials, sometimes with a classifying version of the tracery of Venetian Gothic architecture continued to be much more used than in other cities.
