Giovane in Dogalina — Young Nobleman in Dogalina — Grevembroch 1-32

The formal dress code of the Venetian aristocracy changed over time, and this is Grevembroch's rendering of a young nobleman from "ancient centuries".

The robe is a dogalina with sleeves so wide, they would touch the floor, if they weren't attached to the shoulder.

It is difficult not to concur, when Grevembroch, in the 1700s, found the "extravagant" hat rather curious.

Watercolour of a man, dressed in a very loose robe of brownish fabric, with sleeves so wide they are attached at the shoulders to avoid them touching the floor. He also wears a large red hat, which at best is shaped like a soft-ice cream, spiralled, with a pointed top.
