Description:

After the 15th century the funeral services of all of Venice's doges were held in San Zanipolo, and twenty-five doges are buried in the church. Silvestro Valiero or Valier (1630-1700) was the 109th Doge of Venice. Between 1705 and 1708, a tomb was built in the Basilica for Valiero, his wife, Elisabetta Querini (died 1708) and his father, Doge Bertucci Valier (died 1658). The tomb is flanked by two large pairs of Corinthian columns in black marble and features a huge "drapery" of yellow marble. The tomb was designed by architect Andrea Tirali, with sculptures from Antonio Tarsia, Pietro Baratta, and Giovanni Bonazza; the relief sculpture was overseen by Gruppello Marino.
