Tintoretto US exhibit
A man looks at Jacopo Tintoretto's painting "The Virgin and Child with Saints" (1540) during a preview of "Tintoretto: Artist of Renaissance Venice" at the National Gallery of Art in Washington on March 19, 2019. What is clear from the first major Tintoretto retrospective outside of Europe, opening Sunday, March 24, 2019 at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, is that the "impetuous genius" critics reviled for his free, "unfinished" style was a bold innovator whose impact can still be felt today.
