A
private and exclusive guided tour at the exhibition “El Greco in
Italia “ in Cà dei Carraresi in Treviso,
A
peculiar painter, son of blended cultures and an itinerant soul:
Dominikos Theotokopoulos known as El Greco was born in Crete in 1541.
El
Greco was born in Greece when his island was under Venetian dominion;
while in his country, he received formal training from the masters of
his time before relocating to Venice in 1567 to closely study
Tintoretto’s, Titian’s and Veronese’s masterpieces.
In
1570 El Greco moved on to Rome, where he studied the great Roman
masters, including Michelangelo- who, though no longer living, was
still very influential in terms of style – yet not officially
adored by the young Greek.
In
1577 El Greco traveled to Toledo, Spain, where he remained until his
death in 1614.
El
Greco’s extraordinary painting work combines all the cues and
insights he acquired while traveling throughout Europe: the
impressive use of color which he learned in Venice; the orderly and
perspectival settings of the Roman masters and the impulse and
passion of the Spaniards.
El
Greco’s paintings combine tradition and innovation; although his
work is firmly anchored in the teachings of the great masters, it
turns to the future, stretching shapes, bodies, faces and enhancing
expressions, sewing the early seeds of originality in art and
painting, which was subsequently seized and developed by many future
artists.
The
Cà dei Carraresi exhibition includes, among others, works such as
the Healing
the Blind Man,
Adoration
of the Shepherds,
Saint
Francis
and the Last
Supper,
displayed side by side with works by other great masters including
Titian’s Saint
John the Baptist,
Parmigianino’s Saint
Zachary
and Paolo Veronese’s Battle
of Lepanto.

I
will gladly accompany you in your journey to discover this
extraordinary master!

Bridge of Sighs
The famous Bridge of Sighs was the only connection between the Doge's Palace and the Prisons. The prisoners had to go over this bridge to go to the venetian prisons.
The Bridge of Sighs is not a romantic Bridge! It's a sad bridge where so many people saw the last light of their life.....
😖😖😖😖
