Paolo Veronese: The Petrobelli Altarpiece (English)

Xavier Salomon, Jennifer Fletcher, Stephen Gritt 

The Petrobelli Altarpiece was painted by Paolo Veronese around 1563 for the Petrobelli family burial chapel near Venice; in 1788, the large painting was ruthlessly cut down and sold in pieces. Paolo Veronese: The Petrobelli Altarpiece reunites the four parts of Veronese's glorious altarpiece, which have not been seen together since the painting's brutal division. The reunion and reconstruction of the altarpiece is a unique occasion to re-evaluate this Venetian Renaissance masterpiece.
