The arrival of the British ambassadors by Vittore Carpaccio

The arrival of the British ambassadors by Vittore Carpaccio

The most famous work of Carpaccio, a series of paintings depicting the legend of Saint Ursula, can be described in the same words as Gentile’s paintings.

You are present at diplomatic audiences, look at the sea, on the waves of which the gondolas and ships fluttering with flags swing, see the semi-eastern semi-classical buildings with terraces, and on the steps a festively dressed crowd, proud senators, elegant young men, beautiful women, musicians playing on wind instruments instruments, motley banners fluttering in the wind. But from luxurious palaces, picturesque costumes and shining sea waves, he builds a fairy-tale kingdom.

This is the difference between Carpaccio and Gentile Bellini. While Gentile drew architectonic views and looked at everything with the eyes of the illustrator, Carpaccio was a poet who threw a cover of a charming fairy tale on reality. When he tells you the legend of Saint Ursula, you can not help remembering old knightly novels about slender princesses and enchanted princes.
