A remote nuns' church at the northern edge of Cannaregio with three Giambattista Tiepolo canvases (1737-40) of the Passion and a hanging nuns' choir (barco) on slender columns. Under it are eight small Bible panels that Ruskin thought were by a boy Carpaccio; today they are given to Lazzaro Bastiani.

Good to know
- The trompe-l'oeil ceiling fresco (after 1674) makes the flat roof look like open architecture.
- Combine it with Madonna dell'Orto, a ten-minute walk east along the fondamente.
