Vittore Carpaccio was a prominent Italian painter of the Venetian school who trained under Gentile Bellini. Influenced by artists such as Antonello da Messina and Early Netherlandish painting, Carpaccio distinguished himself through his mastery of perspective, meticulous architectural details, exploration of themes related to death, and vibrant use of color. His art often featured religious subjects and intercultural influences, with a focus on creating altarpieces and extensive pictorial cycles for churches and private patrons in Venice. Carpaccio’s urban scenes, particularly those showcasing the city’s opulence and influence, remain some of his most renowned works.
