Many people come here to visit the famous mosaics by Tommaso da Modena (1326 – 1379), commissioned in 1352 and depicting 40 great Dominican scholars, including St Thomas Aquinas, St Albert the Great, several Dominican Popes, Cardinals Annibaldi, Hugh Aycelin, Latino Malabranca Orsini, and Cardinal Hugh of Saint-Cher – his portrait is apparently the earliest known fresco of somebody wearing glasses! Unfortunately many were hidden by renovation work when I visited but they are absolutely beautiful and very well worth the visit. You will find them in the Chapter Room and entry is free! However another famous person who graced this seminary is Pope Saint Pius X, who (prior to becoming Pope) was spiritual director of Treviso Seminary! You will find a plaque and a bust of him in the main entrance hall and also his name is listed on board of principal benefactors of the seminary. The cloister is also very beautiful and well worth a quiet stroll.

Museo Bailo was most definitely one of the highlights of my day in Treviso. Great 19th and 20th century art museum, with works by great italian artists such as Luigi Serena, Gino Rossi, Luigi Borro and Arturo Martini. Arturo Martini is the museum's highlighted artist, but I far preferred the more academic works by Luigi Serena or Luigi Borro. Nevertheless, a very well organized and interesting musem in a masterpiece of contemporary architecture.

Some paintings on the first floor but the ground floor is the most interesting. All artifacts were found in the town itself, including mosaic floors. You can see some great 13/14 Century frescoes removed from various convents and churches as well as tiles and examples showing how the whole city's buildings, grand and humble, were all richly decorated in medieval times.
