Catalogue Note
Les armes sont celles d'Alvise Pisani (Venise, 1664-1741) , 114ème doge de Venise, élu en 1735. il est le fils de Gianfrancesco Pisani et de Paolina Contarini (également issue d'une famille de doges). Ambassadeur de la Sérénissime en France, Autriche et Espagne, il postule, en vain, au doganat en 1722 et en 1732. Cependant, en 1735, après avoir dépensé beaucoup d'argent pour corrompre les 41 électeurs, il est enfin élu à l'unanimité. Il épousa Elena Badoer.
