👨🎨13 September 1506. Andrea Mantegna (above his sculpture portrait☝️) passes away in Mantova.
Born near #Padua, in a place that today is named after him (Isola Mantegna) at the time under the Republic of Venice, #Mantegna was one the most prominent painters and engravers of the early #Renaissance.
Some said he was the only artist able to "sculpt on a painting".
#AndreaMantegna was brother-in-law of another fantastic 👉 Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini.
Mantegna's works are held in the most important Italian and international museums.
In Venice we can admire just 2 of them, those in the pictures above☝️:
San Sebastiano at Museum Franchetti inside the #CaDOro and San Giorgio inside the #AccademiaGalleries.

👨🎨5 October 1712. Francesco Guardi, one of the most famous Venetian painters was born in Venice.
Francesco Lazzaro Guardi was a nobleman and a member of the Venetian School. He is considered to be among the last practitioners of the classic Venetian school of painting.
He is famous for his "vedute" (views) but differently from those of his contemporary and much more famous #Canaletto which are like a proper photography, his #VeniceViews are evanescent and almost unreal.
It looks like the paintings of #Guardi met the music of his contemporary #Vivaldi: Venice at the peak of its magic!
Not many works of #FrancescoGuardi are held in Venice, the most famous ones are exhibited in other Italian and international museums: like the 3 in the above pictures☝️ which are visitable in Modena Galleria Estense, Paris Louvre, Bergamo Accademia Carrara.
His portrait was made by another great Venetian artist, #PietroLonghi and is held inside the Ca' Rezzonico 1700 Museum in Venice.

📜8 October 1094. The remains of the Saint Mark Evangelist are definitively placed in the crypt of the Basilica of San Marco, built for the third time since 828 AD and at the time called "The Golden Church": San Marco's body is hidden in a marble tomb at the time known only by the Doge and the Procurators of San Marco to avoid stealings. The solemn ceremony is held in presence of the Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV.

📜 8 October 1451.
San Pietro in Castello becomes the first site of a Patriarch in Venice.
Before that, Venice was "under" the Patriarch (= Catholic bishop) of Grado, today a town and seaside resort in Friuli Venezia Giulia region.
It took more than 350 years (right after the 👉 fall of the Republic) to move the Patriarch from San Pietro in Castello to the actual #SanMarco site.
The first Patriarch of Venice was Lorenzo Giustiniani and, to confirm the uniqueness of this city, he was nominated by the Republic Senate, not by the Church.
San Pietro in #Castello, with its leaning tower 📸☝️, is one of the most secluded islands of Venice, absolutely out of the touristy trails...
therefore included in my #WalkingTour 😉

📜17 October 1797. With the Treaty of Campoformio, a small town in #Friuli region, #Napoleon sells (or gives away) Venice and its region to the Austrian, at the time still leading nation of the so called Sacred Roman Empire (which will be extinct in 1806).
Napoleon conquered Venice just few months before (see more story 👉 here) but he wasn't much interested in the city (apart from stealing everything he could from Venetian palaces), so he used it as a bargain for his expansionist aims.
The Austrian troops entered in Venice at the beginning of 1798, the entire Venetian region stayed under #Austria domination until 1866.
«Il sacrificio della patria nostra è consumato: tutto è perduto; e la vita, seppure ne verrà concessa, non ci resterà che per piangere le nostre sciagure, e la nostra infamia."
(Ugo Foscolo, Ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis)
