TINTORETTO
The Scuderie del Quirinale stables are hosting an extraordinary exhibition featuring approximately 40 paintings (accompanied by a special section dedicated to the artistic environment in which the Venetian master lived and worked), all of which are of the highest quality, on loan from international museums and collections. These works are capable of offering the public a concise yet significant overview of the artistic career of Jacopo Tintoretto. The exhibition focuses upon the three main themes of Tintoretto’s painting: religion, mythology and portrait painting. Among the works on display: the spectacular Miracle of the Slave, painted in 1548, (a painting that was commissioned by the Scuola Grande di San Marco and would firmly establish him as one of the leading Venetian artists of his time) and Christ Carried to the Tomb, painted in 1594 (from the San Giorgio Maggiore Monastery), which is perhaps the last work in which the hand of the master is easily recognized.
