Palazzo Bernardo

Casa Bernardo (S. Polo 1978, Nadali & Vianello (1999) Tav. 28). Grand Canal on the corner of Rio della Madonetta.

The references at House Book 2 p.47 and House Book 2 p.48 are to the traceries of the lateral windows of the Palazzo Bernardo on the Grand Canal at San Polo 1978.

At Notebook M p.51 Ruskin uses the name Bernardo to refer to the Danieli and the Index at Notebook M p.220 refers to ‘Danieli (Bernardo Mocenigo)’. There are two other Bernardo houses to which Ruskin refers. There is a reference at Notebook M p.71, presumably to the Palazzo Bernardo on the Grand Canal at San Polo 1978, across the Rio de la Madoneta from the ‘Police House’. It is Ruskin’s 16th House, on which see House Book 1 pp.21f and House Book 2 p.47 and House Book 2 p.48 on the traceries of the lateral windows. He refers at Notebook M p.121 and Notebook M p.160 to the Palazzo Bernardo at San Polo 2195. See Works, 11.364 for both.
