Grand historical scenes, intricate architecture and robust colors on display in the paintings of the Italian Mannerist master

One of the three major Venetian painters of the Cinquecento, Paolo Caliari (1528-88), known as Veronese, was celebrated first and foremost as a colorist. A sumptuous narrator, he created a subgenre of colossal religious and mythological paintings, grandiose in size and display of fabrics, poses and portraits, where the evangelical event was an opportunity to stage the patrician society of his time. Appreciated and admired throughout the ages, Veronese paved the way for the theatrics of 17th-century painting and the vivid palettes of the Romantics and Impressionists. This book retraces Veronese's work through its essential stages from an early creativity to critical success, and details his artistic inventions such as his illusionistic solutions and taste for staging.
