San Sebastiano

San Sebastiano Review

Paolo Veronese (1528-88), although still in his twenties, was already the official painter of the Republic when he began the oil panels and frescoes at this, his parish church, in 1555. For decades he continued to embellish the church with very beautiful illusionistic scenes. The cycles of panels in San Sebastiano are considered to be his supreme accomplishment. Veronese is buried beneath his bust near the organ.
