👨🎨📜17 September 1510. Giorgione (his portriat on the left☝️), one of the most mysterious painters of the Italian #Renaissance, passed away of pest in Venice. This is actually the only certain thing we know about #Giorgione.
He was born probably in 1478 in #Castelfranco, Medieval town 30 minutes away from Venice and at the time part of the Venetian Republic.
He moved to Venice very young and entered the Art School of 👉 Giovanni Bellini as a palace decorator, soon joined by 👉 Tiziano.
That's why Bellini and Tiziano are the main witnesses of Giorgione's work, due to the fact that he never signed his paintings.
Today we all can admire Giorgione's most famous paintings in the #AccademiaGalleries in Venice: among them "La Tempesta"☝️, unanimously regarded as one of the most beautiful and important artworks of the Renaissance!
