Giandomenico Tiepolo (1727-1804)

This painting by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770) is the modello of a work now lost, commissioned in 1743 for the Elector of Saxony, Augustus III of Poland, and intended for the royal collections in Dresden.

Thanks to the help of the Société des Amis du Louvre, the museum was able to purchase a Giambattista Tiepolo at a private sale. It is a fresco of over 3 meters high, depicting Juno in the midst of the clouds, which originally decorated the ceiling of a Venetian palace before being detached. Its price is not known.

The drawing by the Italian rococo artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo was uncovered in the loft of Weston Hall manor house in England. It will go under the hammer at Dreweatts auction house on November 16 and 17, and “conservative estimates” place it at between £150,000 and £250,000. (BBC)

The owners' decision to sell the seven grisaille canvases painted by Domenico Tiepolo (1727-1804) for the decor of Palazzo Valmarana ai Nani, on loan since 2017 to the Palladio Museum in Vicenza, put their exhibition in question, until they were preempted by the Italian state on July

Paul Touzet was one of France's most renowned post-war experts. The sale of part of his collection of paintings and drawings is an opportunity to pay him a well-deserved tribute.

Intesa Sanpaolo is Italy’s leading bank and the only one in Europe with an Art, Culture and Historic Property Department. Its collection of over 30,000 works is spread out over four galleries in Milan, Naples, Vicenza and Turin.

You can reserve a spot for a free guided tour Thursday at 6:30 pm and Saturday at 2 pm (in French).

While Martinez is running for a third term, a Mediapart survey points to a strategy dictated by "a short-term economic vision" and personal interests, such as the purchase of a Tiepolo fresco for €4.5 M, against the advice of the painting department, from the dealer who was supposed to finance his latest book.

63 works by Giordano, Tiepolo or Guardi, many of them never before presented to the public, enrich the new museum layout focused on 17th and 18th-century pictorial art in the Veneto. A preliminary restoration of the 2 additional rooms was financed by the Venetian Heritage and the Ministry of Culture, among others.

A Byzantine work from the late 14th or early 15th century, this plaque with rich relief carving was later used in Orthodox worship in Venice.
