Description:
|
|
In 1553 Ponchino was in Venice, where he was commissioned to paint the decorations in the Doge’s Palace. Vasari stated that he gained this important commission because of his connection with the influential Grimani family, but then, at Ponchino’s invitation, Paolo Veronese and Battista Zelotti became involved in the project. Ponchino's work in the Sala del Consiglio dei Dieci (1553-1555) comprises Mercury and Minerva, Neptune Drawn by Sea Horses and grisailles of a personification of Venice and male nudes (all in situ).
