Download or read book Paintings from Murano by Paolo Veronese written by Venetian Heritage and published by Marsilio. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exhibition celebrated two Paolo Veronese paintings from the church of san Pietro Martire in Murano. The paintings have been restored by Venetian Heritage with the generous support of Bulgari. The large canvases showing Saint Jerome in the Desert and Saint Agatha Visited in Prison by Saint Peter were commissioned by Francesco degli Alberi, the priest of the church of Saint Mary of the Angels in Murano, and painted by Veronese in 1566. They were originally held in the private chapel built alongside the church on the priest?s orders. In 1667 the paintings were relocated to the nearby church of Saint Mary of the Angels. The very elaborate frames in gilded wood were most likely sculpted around this period. The church was deconsecrated during the French occupation at the beginning of the 19th century, and some of the works kept there were transferred to the neighbouring church of San Pietro Martire. The paintings and the frames were in a poor state: the heavy over-varnishing applied over the years had darkened, making it difficult to appreciate Veronese?s brilliant colours, while the gilt was peeling off the frames, leaving visible gaps. The restoration has successfully brought back to life these two 16th century masterpieces of Venetian painting. 00Exhibition: Gallerie dell'Accademia, Venice, Italy (12.03 - 17.09.2017) / The Frick Collection, New York, USA (24.10.2017 - 25.03.2018).

This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the principle painters of the sixteenth century Venetian school, Paolo Veronese produced monumental works, portraying allegorical, biblical and historical subjects in splendid colour, set against the backdrop of Renaissance architecture. A master of colour, Veronese also excelled at illusionary compositions that extend the eye beyond the actual confines of the room. After an early period of Mannerism, he developed a naturalist style of painting, which was influenced by Titian and would go on to inspire the masters of the Baroque and later eras. His works are celebrated for their chromatic brilliance, sensibility of brushwork, aristocratic elegance and the sheer magnificence of spectacle.

Download or read book Paolo Veronese written by Richard Cocke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001: Paolo Veronese: Piety and Display in an Age of Religious Reform examines the large body of religious paintings with which Veronese (1528 -1588) played a crucial role in shaping Venetian piety. With 117 illustrations (26 in colour) Richard Cocke sets Veronese’s work into context, arguing his mastery of narrative has long been neglected, largely as a result of Sir Joshua Reynolds's criticism in his Discourses. The new expressiveness of Veronese’s work in his final decade is linked with the decrees of the Council of Trent, which resulted in an enhanced display of paintings in Venetian palaces during the 1570s, matched by the renewed decorative schemes in the city’s churches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paolo Veronese was an Italian Renaissance artist is one of the great masters of the Venetian school, most famous for large history paintings of both religious and mythological subjects. With Titian and Tintoretto he was one of the "great trio that dominated Venetian painting of the cinquecento" or 16-century late Renaissance. Veronese is known as a supreme colorist and after an early period with Mannerist influence turned to a more naturalist style influenced by Titian. Many of the greatest artists may be counted among his admirers, including Rubens, Watteau, Tiepolo, Delacroix and Renoir. His most famous works are complex storyline cycles, executed in a dramatic and rich style, full of majestic architectural settings and impressive display. His large paintings of biblical feasts, crowded with figures, painted for the refectories of monasteries in Venice and Verona are especially famous, and he was also the leading Venetian painter of ceilings.
