description

The facade of the Palazzo Giustinian Businello provides a glimpse of the characteristics of the Venetian- Byzantine warehouse, as it was evident from the 15th to the 19th century despite the changes made. The portals, once part of the portico with access to the canal on the ground floor, and the multiple windows with their balusters in the middle of the main floors remain as witnesses to the original furnishings . The old half-reliefs have also been preserved.

The remaining window openings, individual windows that are arranged symmetrically to the central window, and the third multiple window on the third floor are the result of later restorations and conversions.
