Note 76 — Chapter VII · VENETIAN PAINTING BEFORE TITIAN
Reading edition
Vettor Carpaccio. Ludwig and Molmenti’s The Life and Works of Victor Carpaccio, London, 1907, gives, aside from its main topic, a vivid picture of the cultural condition of Venice about 1500. See my essay review of it in The Nation, Vol. 86, (1908) pp. 315 ff. John Ruskin’s delightful comments on Carpaccio are mostly in the Guide to the Academy at Venice and in St. Mark’s Rest, chapter The Shrine of the Slaves, Library ed. Vol. XXIV.
