1518 1594 Alias Doublet Jacopo Painter Robusti Tintoretto
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the enigmatic Italian painter, Jacopo Robusti, better known as Tintoretto, in the later stages of his illustrious career. The portrait, painted by an unknown artist, is believed to have been created in 1594, and is now held in the collection of the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Dijon, France, under the title "Tintoretto alias Jacopo Robusti, Italian painter, by Marcenay." Tintoretto's expressive face, with its furrowed brow and intense gaze, seems to convey a deep sense of concentration and artistic fervor. He is depicted wearing a doublet, the fashionable attire of the time, adorned with intricate lace collars and cuffs. The painter's left hand rests on an open book, a symbol of learning and the creative process. Born in Venice in 1518, Tintoretto was a leading figure of the Venetian School of painting. Known for his dramatic use of light and color, as well as his innovative compositions, Tintoretto's works continue to captivate audiences around the world. Some of his most famous paintings include "The Last Supper" and "The Crucifixion," both housed in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice. Despite his success, Tintoretto's life was not without controversy. He was known for his fiery temper and his refusal to conform to the artistic conventions of the time. He was also a prolific painter, producing over 400 known works during his long career. This portrait of Tintoretto, with its intriguing composition and rich historical significance, offers a glimpse into the life and artistic legacy of one of Italy's greatest painters. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of art to inspire and captivate, even as the sands of time continue to pass.
