Description
English: Palazzo dei Dieci Savi in Venice - The Lion of St Mark (in moléca) on the facade. The lion is crouched and positioned frontally with the wings spread like a fan, assuming a crab-like appearance with open claws (and in Venetian moléca is the name of the small crabs in the moulting period). It is a version widely used on small spaces, due to its simplicity and graphic compactness, especially on coins, seals, coats of arms and bas-reliefs.
Français : Palazzo dei Dieci Savi à Venise - Le Lion de St Marc (in moléca) sur le façade. Le lion est accroupi et positionné frontalement avec les ailes déployées comme un éventail, prenant une apparence de crabe avec des pinces ouvertes (et en vénitien moléca est le nom des petits crabes en période de mue). C'est une version largement utilisée sur les petits espaces, du fait de sa simplicité et de sa compacité graphique, notamment sur les monnaies, sceaux, blasons et bas-reliefs.
Italiano: Palazzo dei Dieci Savi a Venezia - Leone di San Marco (in moléca) sul la faciatta. Il leone è accovacciato e posizionato frontalmente con le ali spiegate a ventaglio assumendo un aspetto simile al granchio con le chele aperte (e in veneziano moléca è il nome dei piccoli granchi in periodo di muta). È una versione molto usata su spazi ridotti, per la semplicità e la compattezza grafica, soprattutto su monete, sigilli, stemmi e bassorilievi stiacciati.
