Storytellers of Venice: Bellini and Carpaccio
1h 7m
Dr. Rocky Ruggiero
The emergence of large-scale narrative paintings in late 15th-century Venice was a conscious response to contemporary fresco cycles by central Italian painters in Florence and Rome. The two most-sought-after pictorial storytellers of Renaissance Venice were Gentile Bellini and Vittore Carpaccio. Join Dr. Rocky for this webinar where he will explore the wonderful paintings of these two master storytellers.
