«La più curiosa» regata in onore del duca di York (Venezia, 4 giugno 1764)

Abstract

This essay analyses one of the most sumptuous regattas of the Serenissima Republic: it was organised in honour of the Duke of York, brother of George III of England, during his stay in Venice on June 4, 1764. Among the many races, the women’s race, in which the most famous rowers of the time took part, stands out. It was also celebrated in poetry: after that day, the poetic text is published here for the first time.
