Excerpt from Wikipedia

The church of San Luca Evangelista is a church in the sestiere of San Marco in Venice, Italy.

A parish church stood at the site since the 11th century, patronized by the patrician Dandolo and Pizzamano families. Restored over the centuries, it underwent major reconstruction in the early 1600s, and was reconsecrated in 1617. The facade is simple, but the interior has a rich decoration. The walls and the ceiling were frescoed by Sebastiano Santi. In the altar in the presbytery is an altarpiece depictingThe Virgin appears to St. Luke as he writes the Gospel by Paolo Veronese. In the right lateral chapel is an altarpiece ofVirgin and Saints by Palma il Giovane. In the second altar to the left, is a painting depictingLorenzo Giustiniani, first Patriarch of Venice, defeating the plague and distributing alms by Carlo Loth.
