Florence on the Lagoon. A Strozzi Company in Early Modern Venice

Chapter
Publication Date:

abstract:
This contribution outlines the activities of a Florentine trading and banking firm in early modern Venice, until it went bankrupt in 1622. The Strozzi could claim a long and successful trading experience in Venice. However, this contribution questions the hypothesis that the lack of active support from the Florentine merchant community and from its representatives in Venice might have harmed the consequences of a bankruptcy.
