This building is one
of three Donà palazzi in the Campo Santa Maria Formosa.

I always like to stand in the middle
of the square and admire its gorgeous Gothic windows (the building dates from
around 1460).

I particularly enjoy
looking at its portal containing an elaborate Renaissance era shield supported
by baby putti.
