This amounts to hereditary participation in administrative body of Venice, which is reserved from that day on only to the most powerful aristocratic families.<\/p>\n<p>Over the times, the Marcellos

humanist and patron<\/strong>, fought valiantly as Venetian admiral against the Visconti, rulers of Milan. At that time, the army of Milan was besieging many towns of the Veneto and it seemed impossible to counter it by land.<br \/>\nThen, the Venetians decided to carry about 30 ships through the hills that separate the Adige river from Lake Garda to get around the enemy and to fight on the water, their favorite \u2018terrain\u2019. The enterprise was bold but the courage was rewarded: the fleet was introduced into the lake and sailed to the south, surprising and beating the enemy troops in Peschiera.<br \/>\nJacopo Antonio was then contrary to the order to stop the army at that assault, so he chased the Visconti till the walls of Brescia, which was freed in 1438 after a long siege.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style

During his reign, a coin was minted which bore his name (Marcella) and was used for many years.<br \/>\nOn trade, the family specialized in the import of silk and damask, with a thriving business in many cities of the East as well as in Constantinople. Curious about it is the portrait of Doge Nicol\u00f2 painted by Titian at the end of 1400 (now at the Vatican Museum) where you see him covered with damask, the precious tissue adopted as the official Doge\u2019s uniform from that point onwards<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-v3r1-a4c722c57c2f120fcebb38aad9eb04f1\">\n.flex_column.av-v3r1-a4c722c57c2f120fcebb38aad9eb04f1{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-v3r1-a4c722c57c2f120fcebb38aad9eb04f1 av_two_third  avia-builder-el-23  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_one_third  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-kyt4sz1t-b25299b4e0b26982ad7989fa1d5961bb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>1484 | The Commander must not die!<\/h3>\n<p>Admiral JACOPO MARCELLO drove the Venetian fleet in the <strong>conquest of Apulia<\/strong> and died hit by a cannon shot during the capture of <strong>Gallipoli<\/strong> in May, 1484.

Padua and Treviso.<br \/>\n<strong>Count Vettor Marcello and his family live at Ca\u2019 Marcello<\/strong>, which was inherited through generations and became first of all their private home, and then also the centre of their interests, life and business.<br \/>\nWhen Count Vettor and his wife Carlotta decided to move from Treviso and to settle down here in the country side, their children Jacopo and Niccol\u00f2 were aged 6 and 2.<\/p>\n<p>Since the beginning, the Marcellos understood the great efforts that would have been necessary to preserve and maintain this villa as a private, alive and shiny home, but they always felt the deep responsibility of it and at the same time felt the unique privilege to live in such a wonderful and welcoming ambient. As part of a glorious family, the Marcellos recognize their noble origins by keeping alive tradition while facing to nowadays world and life-style.<\/p>\n<p>In the latest ten years many things changed for the four components of the family: <strong>Count Vettor<\/strong> began opening the house to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/private-visits\/\">groups of private visitors<\/a> \u2013 mostly members of cultural associations located all over the world \u2013 who were interested in having a real experience of being guests of a private historical home and its family\u2019s daily life.<br \/>\nThis was a successful idea, and briefly were followed by another one: opening the house to organize cultural events, such as expositions or small congresses, and finally <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/weddings\/\">private and refined receptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This was a perfect match between letting other people admire a part of the magnificent beauties that the villa preserves \u2013 the beautiful stucco-works, frescoes and furniture especially made in the 18th century for this house \u2013 and earning enough to continue maintaining it properly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Countess Carlotta<\/strong> put her experience in interior decoration \u2013 which has been her main activity for years \u2013 to restore numerous sides of the house and pieces of furniture. With strength and passion she gave continuous impulse to the family\u2019s purpose: to exalt the cultural and educational potential of reconciling history and tradition with present times.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2000, their son <strong>Jacopo Marcello<\/strong> has continued to manage the business, making Ca\u2019 Marcello one of the most relevant historic residences in the Veneto. In addition to developing new services for tourists and visitors, he brought the brand online and heavily digitized it. Today, many travelers from all over the world stay in the exclusive Barchessa apartment or organize their fairytale wedding in this venue.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7428,"parent":7502,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7507","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7507"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7507\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7502"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.camarcello.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
