An area historically acclaimed for its quality wine production, so much that in 1590 the historian Bonifacio sang its praises in his “Trevigiana History” sustaining that “the Trevigi countryside has woodlands useful for timber and for hunting… The land produces (…) excellent wines and the most remarkable is the one of the Montello Riviera” which consists of clay earth rich in iron and minerals. Founded in the 50s by Count Piero Loredan, direct descendant of the Doge of Venice Leonardo Loredan (who chose the territory of “Vignigazzu” to establish his residence in a magnificent Palladian villa), in 1973 the business passed under the property and direction of the present owner, Mr. Giancarlo Palla. From its beginnings the founder planted the company’s tenements vines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbech in order to produce highly esteemed quality wines.

Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt
Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2009, vol. 4 Body of Empire: Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt n 1578, a committee of government officials and monk and historian IGirolamo Bardi planned a program of redecoration for the Sala del Maggior Consiglio (Great Council Hall) and the adjoining Scrutinio, among the largest and most important rooms in the Venetian Doge’s Palace. Completed, the schema would recount Venetian history in terms of its international stature, its victories, and particularly its conquests; by the sixteenth century Venice had created a sizable maritime empire that stretched across the eastern Mediterranean, to which it added considerable holdings on the Italian mainland.1 Yet what many Venetians regarded as the jewel of its empire, the island of Cyprus, was calamitously lost to the Ottoman Turks in 1571, three years before the first of two fires that would necessitate the redecoration of these civic spaces.2 Anxiety about such a loss, fear of future threats, concern for Venice’s place in evolving geopolitics, and nostalgia for the past prompted the creation of this triumphant pro- gram, which featured thirty-five historical scenes on the walls surmounted by a chronological series of ducal portraits. Complementing these were twenty-one large narratives on the ceiling, flanked by smaller depictions of the city’s feats spanning the previous seven hundred years. The program culminated in the Maggior Consiglio, with Tintoretto’s massive Paradise on one wall and, on the ceiling, three depictions of allegorical Venice in triumph by Tintoretto, Veronese, and Palma il Giovane. These rooms, a center of republican authority, became a showcase for the skills of these and other artists, whose history paintings in particular underscore the deeds of men: clothed, in armor, partially nude, frontal and foreshortened, 61 62 EMWJ 2009, vol.

THE SCOTSMAN "Those who travel for the sake of culture will be well catered for in Mr. Grant Allen's new series of historical guides. There are few more satisfactory books for a student who wishes to dig out the Paris of the past from the im- mense superincumbent mass of coffee-houses, kiosks, fashionable hotels, and other temples of civilisation, beneath which it is now submerged. Florence is more easily dug up, as you have only to go into the picture galleries, or into the churches or museums, whither Mr. Allen's^ guide accordingly conducts you, and tells you what to look at if you want to understand the art treasures of the city.

Introduction The Other Voice In 1415, the young and still unmarried Francesco Barbaro (1390–1454) wrote the revolutionary treatise The Wealth of Wives (De re uxoria) that posits the value a wife contributes to a marriage as the mother of offspring.1 It is revolutionary because it identifies the mother—a woman, not a man; an interloper in the house- hold, not its patriarch—as the critical figure for the rearing of the young and, consequently, for the social and cultural reproduction of the noble family.

The Coins of Venice by Peter E
The Coins of Venice by Peter E. Lewis View of Venice. (Wikimedia Commons) HE coins of Venice are a fascinating Tarea of study, especially if you have a strong Christian faith, because they nearly always have designs relating to Christi - anity. The people of northern Italy had been converted to Christianity by 400 AD, and when the barbarian invasions occurred in the 5 th and 6 th centuries, the people living near the coast fled to islands in the large lagoon at the north-west tip of the Adriatic Sea. Eventually the islands in the centre of the lagoon became the city of Venice. (Figure 1) At first Venice continued to be under Byzantine control, but as Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, was far to the east, Venice came more under the influence of the Francs, whose empire was founded by Charlemagne (768-814 AD) and included most of Italy. By about 840 AD, however, the city had established a largely independent position between the great empires in the east and the west, and this greatly favoured its development as a centre of trade for the whole of Europe.

Introduction
Introduction This book is mostly dedicated to the iconographic analysis of the fresco pro- gram of Villa Grimani Molin, a rural Veneto villa located in Fratta Polesine in the province of Rovigo, owned today by the Avezzù family (Plate 1). ‘Mostly’, because the scope is to demonstrate that in certain situations, a content-meaning analysis of a work of art cannot overcome the interpretive challenges without a reconstruction of its historical context, that must be as resourceful and detailed as possible. Au- thorship, patronage and dating are all external factors, a set of preliminary informa- tion that can dramatically influence and facilitate our ability to interpret any work of art. But what happens when the more common methods of the art historian are unable to provide a response to one, two or all these elements? The fresco program of Villa Grimani Molin provides an ideal case study for such challenge. The villa resides amid the low and humid terrains of the Polesine, a peripheral area of the Veneto that was originally retained inhabitable, subject to frequent land mutations and water overflows. In the sixteenth century, these unhealthy wetlands were taken up by the determined Venetian patricians, sanitized by their expert engi- neers, and transformed into a center of prosperous agricultural and cultural activity. The lands were reorganized in keeping with the Santa agricoltura, the new agricultural philosophy described by Alvise Cornaro, which was a celebration of the sense of emancipation granted from the work in the fields, with respect to the commercial activities that were traditionally recognized with the Venetian Republic 1.

While scholars have addressed the cycle's formal qualities that stimulate such responses, the context surrounding the cycle has not been fully explored. The city was a refuge for reformers and the printing center for potentially heretical writing in the sixteenth century. Tintoretto maintained relationships to members ofthe reformist poligrafi, and the Passion cycle responds to the mystical theologies propagated in widely disseminated works from Ignatius ofLoyola's officially sanctioned treatise, Spiritual Exercises, to the more controversial work ofDon Benedetto and Marcantonio Flaminio, the Beneficio di Cristo.
