Notes
Owing its name to Francesco Erizzo, Doge from 1631 to 1646, this room is decorated in the same way as the preceding rooms: a carved wood ceiling, with gilding against a light-blue background, and a Lombardy-school fireplace. The frieze along the walls contains angels and symbols of wars, an allusion to the military feats that were the reason for Erizzo's appointment as Doge. From here, a small staircase leads up to a window that gave access to a roof garden.
