About this book

This colorful history tells the stories of the dogaressas (the wives of the doges who ruled the Republic of Venice) illuminating the splendor, intrigue, and pageantry of the Venetian court across the centuries. Edgcumbe Staley brings to life the ceremonies, fashions, and personalities of these often-overlooked women and the dazzling maritime republic they helped adorn. Rich in period detail and anecdote, the book offers a fascinating window onto the art, power, and romance of old Venice. For lovers of Italian history and the pageantry of the past, The Dogaressas of Venice is an engaging and atmospheric chronicle of a unique chapter of European history.
