The library bears the name of Jacopo Sansovino, who built it between 1537 and 1553. It is also called Biblioteca Marciana. This is truly a must-see. In addition to walls of books and antique globes, the halls have paintings of famous Italian masters. When you enter, on each side of the entrance door, you will see "Philosophers" by Veronese, on the left there are two "Philosophers" by Schiavone, four by Tintoretto, on the end wall two more by Tintoretto. On the ceiling you can also see among others three paintings by Veronese and three by Schiavone. Titian chose the painters of the ceiling and when they finished, Veronese got a gold chain as mark of honor for "working the best". In addition to the main hall there is also a vestibule or antechamber, where in the center of the ceiling you can find Titian’s "Wisdom" painted around 1560. The floor was made in 1815, and the floor in the main hall came around the same time from Scuola Grande della Misericordia also built by Sansovino.
