In the centre are the Dogana, or customs house, and the baroque church of Santa Maria della Salute. On top of the column on the right is a statue of St Theodosius, another patron saint. Originally, the column of St Mark was painted on the left, as in the preparatory drawing, but then replaced with a boat’s mast and sail.
