This altarpiece is located on the side altar to the left of the main church entrance. While the architecture of the church dates from the mid-15th century, the altarpieces tend to date from the late 17th to 18th century; reflecting the amount of rebuilding and restoration that took place. The present form of the nave was remodeled by Giuseppe Pedolo by the mid-18th century.
