Marino Zorzi

Marino Zorzi, born in Venice, was the 50th Doge of the Republic of Venice, from 23 August 1311 until his death. He was married to Agneta Querini. Considered to have been a devout man, he had served as an ambassador to Rome. He may have been elected to decrease tensions in the city caused by the attempted revolt of Bajamonte Tiepolo as well as tensions with Rome, still angry with Venice over her occupation of the city of Ferrara (1308–09).
