Caterina Sagredo Barbarigo is also known for her conflict with the Venetian Inquisition. She operated a popular casino at the Giudecca. Venice become famous for its casinos at this point. The clergy and the Inquisition found these businesses scandalous, because at the casinos, both men and women from the nobility could mix freely. In prior centuries, women of the Venetian nobility had seldom been allowed to congregate with men, but during the 18th century, this underwent a sharp contrast, a development which started when Chiara, Maddalena and Laura Contarini, daughters of doge Domenico II Contarini, had stopped using the zoccoli, a certain type of shoe used by the Venetian upper class women, which had prevented them from moving freely. The Inquisition saw the gender mixing at the newly established casinos as a symbol of this, and also banned noblewomen from frequenting them. Caterina was indicted and her casino was closed by order of the Inquisition 6 April 1747. Her case became famous, but it did not stop the development: already in 1751, another female noble, Marina Sagredo Pisani, opened a new casino, and in 1767 the Inquisition allowed noblewomen to frequent the casinos on the condition that they cover their faces. Caterina Sagredo Barbarigo is the model of several famous paintings of Rosalba Carriera. See also
