11 The title of the first version of Goldoni's play is Les deux italiennes. Rossini was most likely familiar with the 1763 Venetian edition, which enjoyed great success at its premiere at Venice's Teatro San Luca and was performed widely in theatres throughout Venice and Italy (Rossini, La gazzetta, XXIV).
