Full DJ which is still bright and clear. Encased in sturdy VG cloth slip case. Lived April 1725 4 June 1798 was an Italian adventurer and author from the Republic of Venice. Regarded as one of the most authentic sources of the customs and norms of European social life during the 18th century. At the time of Casanova's birth the city of Venice thrived as the pleasure capital of Europe ruled by political and religious conservatives who tolerated social vices and encouraged tourism. It was a required stop on the Grand Tour traveled by young men coming of age especially men from the Kingdom of Great Britain. The famed Carnival gambling houses and beautiful courtesans were powerful drawcards. Casanova's growing curiosity about women led to his first complete sexual experience with two sisters Nanetta and Marton Savorgnan then 14 and 16 who were distant relatives of the Grimanis.
