Early modern Venice and its lagoon had a complex religious landscape, with two bishops, nearly eighty parishes, fifty nunneries, thirty-six male monasteries, more than 300 confraternities, and four ospedali grandi, all performing religious services as often as eight times a day or just once a year. Venetians and visitors could attend masses, vespers, devotional services, displays of relics, and processions, following published calendars, often indicating when musical performances could be expected. Venetian printers issued a constant stream of religious and devotional texts and images, facilitating private worship in the home, and those with the means could also purchase religious paintings. While Roman Catholics naturally dominated the city, there were also members of other religions, including Greek Orthodox, Armenians, and Jews, and even some clandestine Protestants.
