Sculpted capital of a putto holding cherries, carved 1340-1355, thought to be by Filippo Calendario, 1315-55, from Column 35, depicting Putti, of the ground floor Piazzetta San Marco columns, on the Doge's Palace or Palazzo Ducale, begun 1340 and built in Venetian Gothic style, Venice, Italy. The palace has 2 arcades with 14th and 15th century capitals and sculptures, and a loggia above with a decorative brickwork facade. It was the residence of the Doge of Venice, the supreme authority of the former Republic of Venice, until the Napoleonic occupation in 1797, and is now a museum.
