Abstract
Examines developments in the visual imagery of charity and almsgiving in early modern Venice, noting their connections with motives of urban improvement and the religious movement of Counter-Reformation. It is argued that the improvement of the imagery of the poor coincided significantly with their relocation to representational space.
