Description
This was one of several turtles swimming about in a little pond on the grounds of Ca' d'Zan, the Venetian Gothic revival winter residence of the American circus owner, developer and art collector John Ringling and his wife Mable. Ca' d'Zan is Venitian for "House of John."
The Ringlings started building Ca’ d’Zan in 1924 and completed it shortly before Christmas in 1926 at the then princely sum of $1.5 million. Unfortunately, three years after its completion, Mable Ringling died from Addison’s disease and the complications of diabetes.
The 66 acre estate of John and Mable Ringling, includes the Circus Museum, Ca' d'Zan,The Historic Asolo Theater, Bayfront Gardens and more.
