Veronese

The aim of this book is to reveal Veronese's pictorial intelligence in all its depth and originality. The brilliance and inventiveness of the artist's touch have earned him an ingrained reputation as a splendid decorator, a master of elegant color and spectacular surfaces, but David Rosand wishes to go beyond this superficial aspect and analyze the true nature of Veronese's art, which closely marries form and content. His technical virtuosity needs no further demonstration. A critical exploration focused on his paintings taken one by one leads to an enriched vision of the pictorial work of the youngest member of the great triumvirate of Venetian painters of the 16th century (Titian, Tintoretto and himself).
