Indexed by Ruskin in M as Bernardo Mocenigo, originally Dandolo, it became the Danieli hotel at Castello 4196, Nadali & Vianello (1999) Tav. 43. In the Venetian Index at Works, 11.395 it is referred to as Nani-Mocenigo.
See Works, 11.346, and Plate 14 facing Works, 11.346. At Works, 11.395 in the Venetian Index it is described as a glorious example of the central Gothic.
References in M:
Ruskin’s Index at Notebook M p.220 reads: ‘Danieli, (Bernardo Mocenigo) Ca 51-54, 121, 158’.
The first is the extended passage of architectural measurement and description beginning at Notebook M p.51; the second is Notebook M p.121; by 158 Ruskin means Notebook M p.158L, and that is related to the note at Notebook M pp.161-2 (where Ruskin had brick broken away to look at the original structure of the arch to the water).
References elsewhere in the Notebooks:
Notebook M2 p.33 as part of a note on dates and the sequence of building of houses, the small central door is seen as a modernism.
Bit Book p.37 section of finestrata;
Bit Book p.62L on gutter dogtooth;
House Book 1 p.42 leaf compared with Palazzo Contarini;
