“Tintoretto: Artist of Renaissance Venice” Exhibit Opening

Happy birthday, Venetian artist Jacopo Tintoretto! It’s been a heck of a half millennium. First there was that whole “last great painter of the Renaissance” thing, with famed paintings such as “Last Supper” and “Susanna and the Elders” that earned you master status. Now comes this major retrospective, which brings some of your best work to the US for the very first time. That certainly seems worth celebrating.
