A towering full-length portrait shows Countess Anna “Annina” Morosini standing with her pale face turned toward us beneath a vast dark hat crowned with blue-gray plumes. Italian artist Lino Selvatico’s cool light grazes her long black gown, fur stole, and tan gloves, catching reflections on satin, jewels, and feathers so viewers can almost feel each texture. Her posture is poised yet relaxed, one arm bent with assured ease while, at her side, a slender light beige greyhound presses close, ribs and muzzle delicately modeled. The muted background and faint architectural suggestion keep focus on the dialogue between woman and dog like two elongated, elegant silhouettes emerging from a soft atmospheric haze. Here, every choice becomes biography. Born Anna Sara Nicoletta Maria Rombo, Annina married into the ancient Morosini family and transformed Ca’ d’Oro and later Palazzo da Mula into legendary salons. By 1908, Annina Morosini, long separated from her husband, was a celebrated Venetian salonnière on the Grand Canal (even making Caffè Florian her “salon”). She was widely dubbed the “last dogaressa” as she entertained writers, royals, and avant-garde artists as the “uncrowned Queen of Venice.” Selvatico, son of poet and mayor Riccardo Selvatico and a leading Belle Époque portraitist, excelled at capturing cosmopolitan women who shaped public taste. In 1908, the Padua-born artist who trained with Cesare Laurenti, was already a Venice Biennale exhibitor and near the height of his society-portrait career in Venice, painting aristocrats and haute bourgeois sitters such as Countess Morosini. In this canvas, he fuses spectacle with psychological insight: Annina appears not as ornament but as strategist of her own image, her direct gaze and commanding black silhouette asserting modern femininity, while the elegant greyhound signals pedigree, loyalty, and the choreographed theater of privilege that both sitter and painter understood so well.

#MUVE sent over some stats. More than 2.3 million visitors enjoyed Venice’s civic museums in 2024, up 4.3% over 2023. Palazzo Fortuny alone was up 21.5% with 57,000 to Eva Jospin’s SELVA (I loved it❤️), which you can still see until Jan. 13 -> venetiancat.blogspot.com/2024/04/eva-...
