Tintoretto: Perbedaan antara revisi

Towards 1546 Tintoretto painted for the church of the [[Madonna dell'Orto]] three of his leading works - the ''Worship of the Golden Calf'', the ''Presentation of the Virgin in the Temple'', and the ''Last Judgment'' now shamefully repainted. He took the commission for two of the paintings, the ''Worship of the Golden Calf'' and the ''Last Judgment'', on a cost only basis in order to make himself better known.<ref>{{CathEncy|wstitle=Il Tintoretto}}</ref> He settled down in a house hard by the church. It is a Gothic edifice, looking over the lagoon of [[Murano]] to the [[Alps]], built in the [[Fondamenta de Mori]], which is still standing. In 1548 he was commissioned for four pictures in the Scuola di S. Marco - the ''Finding of the body of St Mark in Alexandria'' (now in the church of the Angeli, Murano), the ''Saint's Body brought to Venice'', a ''Votary of the Saint delivered by invoking him from an Unclean Spirit'' (these two are in the library of the royal palace, Venice), and the highly and justly celebrated ''Miracle of the Slave''. This last, which forms at present one of the chief glories of the Venetian Academy, represents the legend of a Christian slave or captive who was to be tortured as a punishment for some acts of devotion to the evangelist, but was saved by the miraculous intervention of the latter, who shattered the bone-breaking and blinding implements which were about to be applied.

These four works were greeted with signal and general applause, including that of Titian's intimate, the too potent [[Pietro Aretino]], with whom Tintoretto, one of the few men who scorned to curry favor with him, was mostly in disrepute. It is said, however, that Tintoretto at one time painted a ceiling in Pietro's house; at another time, being invited to do his portrait, he attended, and at once proceeded to take his sitter's measure with a pistol (or a [[stiletto]]), as a significant hint that he was not exactly the man to be trifled with. The painter having now executed the four works in the Scuola di S. Marco, his straits and obscure endurances were over.
