Thanks to the collaboration between the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia and the Google Cultural Institute, the Palazzo Ducale is part of Google Arts & Culture: an online platform through which the public around the world can access high-resolution images of works of art in the collections of museums partners in the initiative, with the goal of democratizing access to culture and to promote its preservation for future generations.

For Palazzo Ducale are uploaded 137 high resolution images of some of the most representative works of the collection and the museum display. These masterpieces include the San Cristoforo by Tiziano,  paintings by Paolo Veronese (Vecchio orientale e giovane donna, Giunone offre a Venezia il corno dogale, L’Apoteosi di Venezia) or the Nettuno offre a Venezia le ricchezze del mare by Giambattista Tiepolo as well as the Paradiso by Jacopo and Domenico Tintoretto.
