PART THREE: VENEZIA

The Most Serene Republic of Venice, year 1640.
Aurelio Della Torre di Rezzonico, a nobleman residing in the castle of Rezzonico and Baron of the Holy Roman Empire, took a bold step by establishing his family’s presence in the city.

Although the official purpose of this strategic relocation was to strengthen his family’s commercial endeavours, it was actually a calculated move in a larger scheme—a quest for power that the Rezzonico dynasty had successfully executed in various other cities. Their true ambitions went beyond mere trade. In 1687, after settling in Venice, Aurelio’s family was accepted into the Venetian patriciate, becoming full members of the Great Council and gaining access to the magistracies of the Republic.

Despite their vast economic influence in Venice, the Della Torre di Rezzonico family was never able to elect a doge from among its members due to their markedly international interests and anyway recent rise to Venetian nobility — the Venetian government was rightly very careful to defend its national identity.
Yet, their legacy reached new heights in 1758 when Carlo della Torre di Rezzonico, a Venetian, ascended to the papal throne as Clemens PP. XIII.

In Rome, Carlo Rezzonico Jr. (1724–1799), a nephew of Pope Clement XIII, became a Cardinal. His relative, Abbondio Rezzonico (1742–1810), who was also from Venice, was honored with a seat as a Senator.
The Della Torre family demonstrated a remarkable ability to wield power and navigate the changing tides of history.

Thank you for joining us on this ‘journey of discovery’ with our two protagonists, Erminia and Luca. 

Also, here’s a valuable tip for your upcoming photoshoot on Lake Como and in Venice: Ensure you have a top-notch tour guide following us for part of the photoshoot. While I am a qualified, local photographer committed to excellence, I don’t claim to have the skills to replace other professionals!
