Dear Members and Guests,
Please join us at the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart on Sunday, January 26, for a fascinating guided tour of
“Carpaccio, Bellini and the Early Renaissance in Venice”
For the first time in Germany, the spotlight will be on Vittore Carpaccio, one of the most successful painters active in the Republic of Venice around 1500. Approximately 55 paintings and works on paper from the museum’s own collection, alongside prestigious international loans, will illuminate Carpaccio’s unique role as a chronicler of Venetian life.
