Le origini della pittura veneziana, 1300-1500
Le origini della pittura veneziana, 1300-1500 is a 1907 art-history survey of early Venetian painting by Lionello Venturi, published in Venice by the Istituto Veneto di Arti Grafiche for scholars and students of Italian art. Its plates are halftone reproductions of altarpieces and devotional panels, mostly saints and Madonnas enthroned under arches and barrel vaults. A designer might take their formal symmetry, gold-ground compositions, and the way robed saints are arranged in architectural frames as models for classical religious layouts.
