Sant'Anastasia
Sant'Anastasia Review
Verona's largest church, begun in 1290 but only consecrated in 1471, is a fine example of Gothic brickwork and has a grand doorway with elaborately carved biblical scenes. The main reason for visiting this church, however, is St. George and the Princess (dated 1434, but perhaps earlier) by Pisanello (1377-1455) above the Pellegrini Chapel off the main altar. As you come in, look also for the gobbi (hunchbacks) supporting holy-water stoups.
