I took this photo of a beautiful example of mid 16th Century Venetian painting on October 29 2017 right outside of Padua. I'm currently living in Veneto, in Vicenza, which is about halfway between Venice and Verona. Yes, I'm eating up every minute of it. I will post a LOT more photos of these paintings I've seen in real life now. What I love about the one above is the mix of goldwork and blackwork in the outfit. The chemise has a lot of lovely blackwork but the partlet has a lot of gold work.
Anyway, I'm back online!
