專家說明
This large etching by Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo is based on an oval-shaped painting by his father Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. Commissioned as part of the decorations of a Palazzo of the Contarini family in Venice and executed between 1753 and 1758, it remained in situ until 1855, when it was removed and shipped to London. It was restored at the National Gallery in the 1960s and eventually sold in these rooms in 1969, when the National Gallery was able to acquire it. Giovanni Domenico's airy etching shows the composition in reverse.
