Fabricatore di Teriaca — Maker of Theriac — Grevembroch 3-127
Theriac was an important product for many apothecaries in Venice, and indeed an important part of the economy of the city.
The production and trade in theriac was therefore regulated by the Magistrato alla Sanità and by the Consiglio di Dieci.
This painting shows a worker, sitting astride a large chest, with a large sieve for sifting the partially ground up ingredients of theriac. For a comparison, see The preparation of Theriac — two prints (1600s).

Since the Middle Ages, noble families had operated banking activities around the Rialto with insufficient oversight. Consequently, fraud and bankruptcies abounded.
