Picture Giovanni Bellini “Greed or Virtue.” The size of the picture is 34 x 22 cm, wood, oil. Mythological woman with large wings is depicted against a background of fantastic scenery. In the early 1470’s. Bellini completely passes to the Dutch technique of pure oil, which, starting with Vasari, is associated with the stay in Venice in 1475/76 by Antonello de Messina, who introduced the painter to the technique of writing “clean” paint, allowing to reach on the plane a greater illusion of the volume and depth of space, rich color effects and richness of tone.
