Palazzo Soranzo Pisani, Venice

Palazzo Soranzo Pisani is a palace in Venice, located in the San Polo district and facing the right side of the Grand Canal, between Palazzo Tiepolo and Palazzo Tiepolo Passi.

 

Architecture

The building with brown plaster is a mixture of Gothic and Renaissance architectural styles and of all those located between the San Polo and San Tomà rios, it is the one with the lowest height. The ground floor, devoid of the mezzanine and currently also of the plaster, has a water portal of modest dimensions not positioned in the center of the building but towards the left side (perhaps once it was paired with another door now walled up).

The first noble floor has a central five-lancet window and two pairs of lateral single-lancet windows, all with an indented frame, with the curiosity that the single-lancet windows are equipped with small balconies while in the five-lancet window they are totally absent following a modern remodelling. The second noble floor follows the openings in the same position as the first floor but with round arches and with a single balcony only for the three central windows of the pentafora.
