"Festa della Sensa (zevende gedeelte)" is a detailed woodcut by Jost Amman, created in 1579. This artwork is one of the 7 parts of the depiction of the Doge of Venice's celebration of the "Festa della Sensa," a festival celebrated on Ascension Day. Amman's work shows a procession of figures, likely a religious procession, with a richly decorated structure in the center. The artwork is a fascinating glimpse into the Venetian culture and religious practices during the 16th century. It is on display at the Rijksmuseum and can be viewed as a significant piece of historical and artistic documentation.
