1885139341885. Original 19th Century photograph showing St. Mark's square Piazza San Marco in Venice. The photograph is very large measuring 10-1/2"x14" and mounted on heavy cardboard to an overall size of 14"x20". Shows a view of Saint Mark's Square the principal public square in Venice and a location used in countless artworks films and literature through the centuries. A remark attributed to Napoleon calls the Piazza San Marco the "drawing room of Europe." The square has been remarkably unchanged by time and appears very similar in paintings of 300 years ago to this photograph of over 100 years ago and as it is today. Catalogue numbered in the lower left hand corner within the photo "48. Venezia/ Piazzo S. Marco." Another image of the same size and condition is on the verso labeled within the photo "25. Venezia/Loggetta." Moderate staining and warping to cardboard but photograph itself is in fine condition. unknown

The manuscript ornately written out and decorated in gold and colored ink opens with a full-page image of the winged Lion of San Marco in the Venetian landscape which serves as an official seal of the document's authenticity and is inscribed by five <i>Provveditori</i> of the Magistrato and one notary who witnessed the certification.</p><p>This pharmaceutical license represents a rare material survival of how Venice's Magistrato alla Sanità regulated the practice of medicine in its territories even down to the level of controlling how individual practitioners could work with specific drugs. Damugliano presumably was required to keep the document on his person while plying his trade and to present it to the relevant authorities or even to his patients should his practice be called into question. The text of the document is written out twice – first in Italian and then in Latin – to suit the linguistic preferences of both the common Venetian citizen and the professional medical class.</p><p>Damugliano also known as Antimo Damulianos is noted in the document dated April 1717 as being a native of the Ionian island of Zante or Zakynthos at the time a Venetian colony and having recently returned from Moscow "where with good success and for a long time he practiced medicine with full official permission of many noteworthy people" f. 2v. Damugliano is said to have studied medicine in Europe likely in Italy specializing in contagious diseases and eventually practicing in Asia Minor Persia India China Egypt Constantinople and Trieste and to have been ordered by Emperor Charles VI 1685-1740 to treat the sick of a plague outbreak in Corinth see L. Zoes passim. Damugliano's name is also associated with a 1725 treatise entitled 'Medicina' which circulated in manuscript form in Venice and dealt with the use of salves pills and stones to treat hydrophobia see L. Zoes; we have been unable to locate a copy of this treatise. Damugliano is also recorded as having worked in Vienna where an April 1746 news magazine comments that the "very famous" Damugliano having traveled through numerous kingdoms has arrived to demonstrate the curative powers of "the wondrous Chinese stone called Bezoar" which is effective against fevers snake bites fatigue colic etc. <i>Nachtrag</i> p. 64. The bezoar stone an indigestible mass formed in the digestive tract of ruminants was lauded from the middle ages as a universal antidote to poison.</p><p> R.

160123709Venice: Ducal Palace 1601. Leaf. Fine. Single page of vellum 12 by 16 inches folded and with cuts along two margins to seal the page. Five lines of manuscript the first two in Latin then two in Italian and the last in Latin identifying Marino di Carvallo as the Venetian Ambassador appointed by the Doge of Venice to the King of France Henry IV of Navarre. Signed at the end in Latin "Leonardus Octobonus" for the Council of Ten. He later held the post of Grand Chancellor of Venice.<br /> <p><br /> "Marino Gramani Doge of Venice sends greetings and affection to the Most Christian King through our noble and wise faithful and beloved Ambassador Marino di Cavallo." It then references the decision of the Council of Ten the Venetian Governing Body and finishes with "Dated in the Ducal Palace this 4th day of April.1601."<br /> <p><br /> The Doge Marino Gremani antagonized Pope Paul IV by trying two priests under Venetian not canon law to which the Pope responded by placing Venice under Interdict. The Ottoboni were an aristocratic Venetian family which provided Venice with more than one Chancellor and ultimately produced Pope Alexander VIII. Marino de Caballo was also from an aristocratic Venetian family and was a noted physician as well as an Ambassador who believed that the most important aspect of his job was to provide an excellent chef and fine food. Finally Henry IV of Navarre a Huguenot ruler of Navarre as Henry III secured the throne of France by converting to Catholicism: "Paris is worth a Mass." Five years later he signed the Edict of Nantes the landmark drecree granting religious tolerance to Protestants and which helped end the Wars of Religion.<br /> <p>. Ducal Palace unknown

Hand-coloured lithograph housed in a custom made cloth box.</em></p><p>Rare German peepshow of St. Mark's Square in Venice rather naive in appearance resembling the illustrations found in chapbooks of the time.</p><p>The front-face consists of the title a view of St Mark's Square viewed from an architectural arrangement at the west end of the square symbols of carnival - a tambourine masks and a jester's bauble - and a circular peephole. The staffage on the cut-outs and backboard consist of commedia del arte figures including a dancing man with a mandolin and two dwarfs. The campanile hopelessly represented and wrongly positioned features on the third cut-out and St Mark's on the backboard.</p> [Germany,
