Venice is famous for its both architecture and paintings. Venetian architecture reflects the Byzantine
influence, though Gothic became the main style in the 14th century and the first Renaissance
building dates from the second half of the 15th century. The Venetian school of painters was
established firstly in the 15th century. The centre of Venetian life is St. Mark's square which is
surrounded with marble pavements. Round this and the adjoining Piazzetta are grouped buildings of
great beauty and interest. At the eastern end of the square is the basilica of St Mark, a fitting cathedral
for the patriarch of Venice.
