EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Conte Lazaro Ferro - The Victorious Venetian Naval Commander of the 18th Century, Surrounded by Winged and Finned Supporters" This 18th-century print depicts Conte Lazaro Ferro, a renowned Venetian naval commander, standing triumphantly amidst an ornate, Baroque setting. The image exudes an aura of power, prestige, and military prowess, reflecting the high regard in which Ferro was held during his time. Born into a noble Venetian family, Lazaro Ferro (1670-1744) began his military career at a young age, serving in the Venetian Navy. He quickly rose through the ranks, demonstrating exceptional leadership abilities and strategic acumen. His most notable victory came in 1717, when he led the Venetian fleet to a decisive victory against the Ottoman Turks in the Battle of Matapan. This battle marked a turning point in the War of the Quadruple Alliance, securing Venetian dominance in the eastern Mediterranean for several decades. The print showcases Ferro in full regalia, wearing the uniform of a Venetian naval commander and adorned with the Order of Saint Mark, a symbol of his noble status and military achievements. Surrounding him are winged and finned supporters, likely personifications of the elements of water and wind, paying homage to his naval prowess and the power of the sea. This evocative print offers a glimpse into the rich history of Venetian naval power during the 18th century, as well as the enduring legacy of Conte Lazaro Ferro, a true hero of the Republic of Venice.
