Other notable works found in the church and sacristy include Titian's St. Nicholas and works by Paris Bordone, Jacopo Sansovino, Palma il Giovane, Alessandro Vittoria, Jacopo Tintoretto, and Bonifacio de' Pitati. Italian Renaissance art expert Rocky Ruggiero discusses the significance of Veronese’s paintings and highlights other noteworthy works in the church.
