Venice by the ruler with figures of Justice and Peace   Paolo Veronese

In the work “Venice, the sovereign with the figures of Justice and Peace”, designed for the Hall of the Board of the Doge’s Palace, Venice is represented in the form of a wise and kind ruler. She sits on the throne, holding a scepter in her hands, a royal smile plays on her lips.

Terrible lion, humbly lying at her feet, symbolizes St. Mark – the heavenly patron of the city. The kneeling figure with an olive branch personifies the World. Figure with a sword and scales – Justice.
