MWW Artwork of the Day (9/12/19) Paolo Veronese [Paolo Caliari](Venetian, 1528-1588) Detail: Juno Showering Gifts on Venetia (c. 1554-56) Oil on canvas Palazzo Ducale, Venice
Despite the havoc wrecked by the Reformation and Counter-Reformation on Western Europe in the 16th c., the general trend was one of concentration of capital and political power. Venice, a city-state that was also a business concern, was still at the very center of the capitalist world system, wealthy and powerful due to its control of trade in the Eastern Mediterranean. It was only natural then for its rulers to put the many fine artists congregated there to work glorifying the city and, as the young Veronese does here, legitimizing its riches and power as "gifts from the gods."
This picture is a detail from a painting on the ceiling of the Sala del Consiglio dei Dieci in Venice's Palazzo Ducale (Doge's palace). Shown here is the personification of Venetia) receiving golden goodies from a Juno (not shown) riding on a cloud above. The gilt framework of the ceiling acts as the base of the composition, the frame being linked with the main central picture by a narrow band. Gold crowns, jewels, and money cascade onto Venice, with the doge's hat and a plain olive wreath. The vocation to power and the vocation to peace are seen as two sides of the same coin. Isn't it always?

Merhaba 👋🏽 Sizlere bugün Paolo Veronese'nin hayatından bahsetmek istiyorum. 1528 Verona doğumlu Veronese, Verona'da eğitim almıştır. 1553'te Venedik'e taşınmış ve Venedik Ekolü'nün en önde gelen isimlerinden biri olmuştur. Sanatçının eserlerinde kullandığı en özgün nokta dönemin görkemini gösteren renkler ve ışık yoğunluğu olmuştur. Venedik'e taşındıktan kısa bir süre sonra San Sebastiano Kilisesi için tablolar yapmaya başlamıştır. 1575-82 seneleri arasında ise yangında hasar alan Dukalık Sarayı'nın iç mekanını dekore etmekle görevlendirilmiştir. Yaptığı ziyafet tablolarıyla adından söz ettiren Veronese, Dukalık Sarayı için yaptığı resim dizisiyle kariyerinin doruk noktasına ulaşmıştır. Veronese, 1588 senesinde Venedik'te hayatını kaybetmiştir. 1- Juno Showering Gifts on Venetia / 2- The Wedding at Cana / 3- Muse with Lyre / 4- The Choice Between Virtue and Vice / 5- Portrait of a Man / 6- The Triumph of Mordecai / 7- The Punishment of the Forger / 8- Bathsheba at her Bath / 9- Wisdom and Strength / 10- Judith with the Head of Holofernes #paoloveronese #sanat #painter #art #italianart #italianpainter #benibunaannemzorladi https://www.instagram.com/p/B1110ZtAUqE/?igshid=163jyykyhmbrf
