Pietro Longhi’s 1774 “Portrait of Bishop Benedetto Ganassoni” depicts the Bishop in formal attire, standing against a backdrop of rich fabrics and ceremonial objects. The artist, known for his genre scenes of Venetian life, captures the Bishop’s dignified presence and the richness of his position within the Church. This artwork, currently housed in the Ca' Rezzonico museum in Venice, offers a glimpse into the world of 18th-century Venetian aristocracy and the religious figures that were central to its society.
