Description:
|
|
Gentile was the son of Jacopo Bellini. He became an official painter of the Venetian Republic and was the dominant figure in Venetian art for several decades in the latter half of the 15th century. He is most noted for portraits and large narrative paintings in which the city and its inhabitants are depicted in great detail. He worked on the decoration of the Sala della Croce of the Scuola di San Giovanni Evangelista in Venice, supervising a team of artists. The decoration comprised eight paintings of scenes from the Legend of the True Cross (Venice, Accad.), of which Gentile painted three: the Procession of the True Cross in the Piazza S Marco is one. The Procession shows the elaborate façade of San Marco with a perspectival view of the crowded piazza and a procession bearing the reliquary crossing the foreground.
