Carlo Osvaldo Goldoni was a famous Venetian playwright who was born in 1707 and died in 1793 and is now considered one of the greatest authors of the theaters in Europe. His statue was placed in Venice, Italy as a memorial for locals and tourists to remember all of his great pieces of work.
When Goldoni was a child his love of the theatre continued to grow even though every attempt was made to lure him in another direction. He was expelled from school at one time and tried his success in the law field. For a while he was a good lawyer but that only lasted for a short period of time as his deeper interests of writing plays and managing theatres got the better of him.
He wrote many bad plays until 1738 which is when he created...
... his first comedy and he soon came to realize where his real talent lied. In 1757, he was involved in a major dispute with another playwright and in 1761 he moved to Paris to continue his career and wrote most of his plays in French.
Goldoni was a great Italian comedy writer and retired his writing career in 1764 to teach Italian to princesses at Versailles. He then began his collection of Memoirs in French and later died in extreme poverty. He was always considered a reputable man in Italy and his statue is proof of that where it stands in Campo S Bartolomeo in Venice, Italy.
