The well of Galleria Giorgio Franchetti in Ca’ D’Oro dates back to 1422 and is attributed to Giovanni “Zuanne Bon Taiapiera” and his son Bartolomeo, who built it for the Contarini family. The artifact, built in red Verona marble, in the shape of a notched capital, depicts the female virtues of Charity, Fortitude and Justice, sat on lion-shaped thrones and surrounded by a fine decoration in acanthus leaves .
