Treviso, Diocese of (Tarvisina), in Venetia (Northern Italy). The capital is surrounded by the River Sile; its environs are the favourite summer resort of the \'enc- tian nobihty. The cathedral, erected in 1141, was trans- formed in 1485 by Tullio and Pietro Lombardo, and modernized in 17.58 with five cu- polas ; the entrance portal dates from 1S35. It contains sculptures by the brothers Bregno and by Antonio Lombardo; paint- ings by Paris Bor- flone, Titian, and Francesco di Do- niinicis; frescoes by Seitz, Porde- none, etc. ; and the tombs of Canon Malchiostro and the Bi-shop Zanetti. The Church of S. Nicol6, designed in Gothic style by Fra Nicol6 da Smola, was erected by Benedict XI, who presented it to the Dominicans. It now belongs to the seminary which occupies the ancient convent of Santa Maria Mad-
dalena; it has paintings by Paolo Veronese. Among
the civil buildings is the Palazzo dei Trecento (1184)
containing the Galleria Comunale with pictures by
Lotto, Tintoretto, Bordone, Bellini. Natives of Tre-
viso were: the painters Paris Bordone, Pier Maria
and Girolamo Pennacchi; the historian Odorigo
Rinaldi (Raynaldus), continuator of Baronius; the
jurist Bartolommeo Zuccati; the CarmeUte Francesco
Turchi, mathematician and architect; and the poet
Venantius Fortunatus.

hold of the Goths in the Gothic war. Through the
intercession of Bishop Felix the city was spared during
the Lombard invasion (569) and became the seat of
a duchy. Charlemagne made it a marquisate,
extending from Belluno to Ceneda, and from the
Adige to the Tagliamento. In 922 Treviso, which
was under episcopal jurisdiction, was sacked by the
Hungarians. In 1014 it was organized as a commune
ruled by consuls, with a council of three hundred
citizens. A member of the Lombard League, it
later made peace with Barbarossa, who respected
its constitution, but appointed as podesta (1173)
Ezzelino il Monaco. He was expelled, and there-
after the Ezzelini and Da Canino took turns in
the office. Notwithstanding a war with Padua,
Belluno, and Fcltre, the city flourished through its
riches, commerce, and the spirit of its inhabitanta.
Released from the tyranny of Ezzelino IV (1231-
50), Treviso was an independent commune until
Emperor Henry VII in 1309 made Riccardoda Canino
imperial vicar. He was treacherously slain and
succeeded by his son Guccello, against whom a con-
spiracy was formed. In 1314-18 Can Grande della
Scala of Verona annexed Treviso to his state, but
the inhabitants revolted to Frederick the Fair of
Austria, and afterwards to Louis the Bavarian.
Meanwhile, Guecello Tempesta was proclaimed
ruler and liberator of the city (1328), but after four
years he induced the citizens to recognize the su-
premacy of Can Grande. Becoming involved in war
with Venice, Treviso was ceded to that city (1338),
captured by Leopold of Austria (1383), sold to the
Carrara, lords of Padua, taken by Gian Galeazzo
Visconti, Duke of Milan (1404), and finally returned
to Venice. In 1848 the papal troops at Treviso,
commanded by Ferrari, sustained a siege by the
Austrians. The university, established at Treviso
in 1317 by Frederick the Fair, did not flourish. The
republic of Venice maintained the school until the
conquest of l':idua (1405), with its great university,
resulted in closing the one at Treviso.
Treviso probably received the Gospel from Anui- leia. The first bishop of certain date was Jucundus, who in 421 took pari in the consecration of the church
