Villa Tauro - Pullir di Cesiomaggiore

 

In the centre of Lentiai lies a "jewel" belonging to the Family Vecellio: the church of Santa Maria Assunta dating back to the end of the 15th century, further enlarged and restored in 1568. Its main work is the large polyptych behind the main altar depicting on the centre the Madonna Assumption, above the Christ Deposition and all around some Saints, among which a San Tiziano presumably executed by the same Tiziano.


nother remarkable work is the coffered ceiling by Cesare Vecellio executed between 1577 and 1579 (20 scenes depicting Maria's life as well as 48 panels with biblical scenes. Among his further works are the twelve Apostles in the nave, San Rocco and San Sebastiano in the right aisle, the Christ Deposition, on the left of the apse, the Madonna del Rosario on the left aisle.

Churche S.Maria Assunta_Palma  il Giovane"Battesimo di Cristo"

Remarkable is the 16th-century art of Jacopo Negretti, also known as Palma il Giovane, with its two altar-pieces depicting respectively the Baptism of Christ and the Crucifixion (end of the 16th century, beginning of the 17th century).

etween Busche and Feltre, precisely at Nemeggio, the parish church is worth a visit. It features a Madonna del Rosario with San Domenico and Santa by the 17th-century artist Girolamo Turro (1689 - 1739). By following the sign towards Villapaiera, you reach a small town with a monumental 19th-century church which in fact incorporates the ancient church of San Martino of late medieval origins. It features a Last Supper with Lobsters dating to 15th century. Remarkable is also a Madonna with Child, San Martino and San Vittore by Francesco Frigimelica (1560 - 1646).
The presence of these animals in several frescos found in the Venetian region from 14th to 16th century clearly indicates a symbology, though not yet verified (symbol of the Resurrection or of the heresy theories beyond the Alps
which ran the risk of catching on in our regions ?).
