Lifeedit
Albertino Morosini is first attested in Venice, in 1209.[1] In 1237–1239, he served as the Venetian Podestà of Constantinople, during which time he contracted a loan on the Republic's behalf with the impoverished Latin Empire, receiving the reputed Crown of Thorns as collateral.[1] He returned to Venice in spring or autumn of 1239, and later in the same year served as judge in the city.[1]
Morosini also served as judge in 1243, as ducal councillor in 1250, again as judge in 1251 and 1253, as Duke of Crete in 1255–1257, and again as judge in 1258.[1]
