Summary "Illustrazione delle medaglie dei dogi di Venezia denominate Oselle" by Manin is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work examines the series of medals known as "Oselle," which were distributed annually to the Venetian nobility by the Doges, capturing significant events in the history of the Venetian Republic. This exploration combines numismatic study with historical context, making it a valuable resource for those interested in Venice's rich heritage. The opening of the book begins with a dedication to Andrea Giovanelli, praising his contributions as a member of the Venetian nobility and a supporter of the sciences. Manin lays the foundation for discussing the historical significance of the Oselle, explaining that these medals serve as memorable tokens preserving the important events and customs of the Venetian Republic. He outlines the origin of these medals, their intended purpose, and the influential figures associated with their issuance, emphasizing their role in both commemorating and documenting Venice's illustrious past. The author also mentions past scholars who have engaged with similar topics, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of each Doge and their respective medals.
