Jacopo Bassano

Jacopo Bassano, although widely appreciated in his own lifetime, has later been overshadowed by the immense renown of the Venetian masters Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese. Located outside the artistic centre of Venice, Jacopo Bassano and his sons produced masterpieces of outstanding quality, which became well represented in major European collections. They achieved widespread popularity in a variety of genres, including biblical-pastoral paintings, portraits, and altarpieces. This book presents a fresh insight into the innovative, artistic practices of Jacopo Bassano and his workshop.
