]]> Throughout the 16th century, the Hispanic Monarchy had a notable representation during the twenty-five sessions of the Council of Trent (1545-1563), being particularly led by Jesuits from 1551. Among the objectives of this ecumenical council, the interest in defining Catholic doctrine and condemning the heresy of the Reformation should be highlighted. The historical significance of the Council is due to the definition of the Catholic Church’s doctrine on Sacred Scripture, Tradition, the Sacraments and celibacy, the confirmation of papal authority, etc. In short, the Council determined the dogmatic, liturgical and ethical norms of the Catholic Church.

]]> Fresco by Raphael to decorate the Room of the Signatura in the Apostolic Palace of the Vatican. Contemporaneous with the decoration of the vault of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel. It shows the best of Renaissance art, under the patronage of the Papacy. It connects the wisdom of ancient Greece with the humanist world of the Modern Age.

]]> Velázquez’s masterpiece, executed during his second trip to Rome. His fame led to his being commissioned to paint this portrait of the Pope, which, being so realistic, displeased the pontiff. It is interesting for understanding the artistic influences between Italy, Spain and Flanders, as well as the diplomacy and exchanges between the main European courts. Portraits such as this one have also left a lasting impression on artists of the 19th and 20th centuries (Impressionists, Picasso, Bacon)

]]> Emblem of Baroque sculpture. A masterpiece by Bernini, representing one of the Metamorphoses narrated by Ovid. It reflects the taste of the papal court, in this case of Cardinal Scipione Borghese, for mythological themes, which connect with the humanist and refined training, concerned with the themes of Antiquity.

]]> Painting by Caravaggio, depicting Tenebrist chiaroscuro. It is symbolic of the violence of realism of this Baroque painter, who was known for depicting lurid, especially violent, themes when dealing with religious subjects. Despite his polemical nature, he attracted a cultured and refined clientele, such as cardinals and princes. The Philistine’s Head appears to be a self-portrait of the artist

The post Rise of Venice first appeared on History Lab.

]]> Rise of Venice puts you in command of a fledgling trading empire based in Renaissance Venice, which must exercise its role as Europe’s cultural centre and most important trading post at the junction between Eastern Europe and the eastern fringe of the Mediterranean. From this point, it must trade with other cities such as Genoa, Tripoli, Rome, Alexandria and Constantinople. During the course of the game, various historical events will occur that will require exceptional measures to be taken to try to overcome them.
As for the fleet, maintaining the characteristics of the Renaissance era, the game starts with a few merchant ships available until it reaches the point of owning and dominating a whole fleet of its own. The product distribution system must also be taken into account, building new production facilities and establishing maritime supply routes between available ports. All this happens while trying to increase the fame and prestige of the protagonist family, while competing with other prominent historical families represented in the game.
