Domenico Veneziano
Domenico Veneziano (towards 1400 - 1461) is an Italian painter of the 15th century probably born with Venice.
Dominique worked with Lorette, Perugia, and finally with Florence. Its best works disappeared. Its style is characterized by a great luminosity, the use of a pallet of tons clear and by the creation of big spaces without ornament (the sky, for example, in “Jean Saint in the desert”.
Its work the most considered is:
- Holy Lucie (1445), initially on the furnace bridge of the church Santa Lucia dei Magnoli with Florence, preserved at the Gallery of the Offices.
It receives Antonello of Messine the secrecy of the Oil-base paint and communicates it to Andrea del Castagno, which, pushed by a horrible jealousy (according to an allegation of Giorgio Vasari in Quickly the ), assassinates it to remain alone in possession of a so important secrecy.
