Excerpt from Bianca Cappello But these glimpses of the past are solely of the outward lives of the Venetians; they' are seen collectively, as it were, never singly, and this applies more particularly to the women. Books describe the general outline of their lives; pictures portray women of the people at their daily toil in the narrow streets or on the water, famous beauties dyeing and combing their hair on the terraces of their houses, or great patrician dames making rare appearances in public, at festivals or marriages or on occasions of national importance, Splendidly dressed, brilliant with jewels, adorned to please the eye of some prince or illustrious personage whom the Republic delighted to honour. But of their individual lives, their personal influence on their fellowmen and women nothing is known. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
