The strange impression that this farewell left with Bellini still lingered when, a few moments later, Westerling summoned him. Not alone the diffidence of a new member of the staff going into the Presence accounted for the stir in his temples, as he waited till some papers were signed before he had Westerling's attention. Then Westerling picked up Bouchard's note and shook his head sadly.
S. Maria dei Miracoli An exquisite casket S. Maria Formosa Pictures of old Venice The Misericordia Tintoretto's house The Madonna dell'Orto Tintoretto's "Presentation" "The Last Judgment" A Bellini Titian's "Tobias" S. Giobbe Il Moro Venetian by-ways A few minor beauties. Among the smaller beauties of Venice its cabinet architectural gems, so to speak S. Maria dei Miracoli comes first.
Gay-Lussac the chemist, Laplace the astronomer, Larrey the surgeon, de Suze the advocate, are here, and with them are Talma, Bellini, Rubini; de Balzac, Beaumarchais, Beranger; Moliere and Lafontaine, and scores of other men whose names and whose worthy labors are as familiar in the remote by-places of civilization as are the historic deeds of the kings and princes that sleep in the marble vaults of St.
Titian and Bellini are each true representatives of the school of painters contemporary with them; and the difference in their artistic feeling is a consequence not so much of difference in their own natural characters as in their early education: Bellini was brought up in faith; Titian in formalism. Between the years of their births the vital religion of Venice had expired.
"Bellini, Benvenuto Cellini, Botticelli?" he continued imperturbably. "What's the use of them when I can get Sargent every day?" asked Mrs. Bergmann. "A man of action, perhaps? Alexander, Bonaparte, Caesar, J., Cromwell, O., Hannibal?" "Too heavy for luncheon," she answered, "they would do for dinner." "Plain statesman? Bismarck, Count; Chatham, Lord; Franklin, B; Richelieu, Cardinal."
From Mantegna to his brothers-in-law, Gentile and Giovanni Bellini and other Venetian masters the transition is easy.
As early as 1510, however, he not only left Venice, but also his Venetian manner. He was invited to Rome by the rich banker and patron of the arts, Agostino Chigi, where he met Raphael, and with astonishing versatility succeeded as well in emulating the excellences of that master as he had those of Bellini and Giorgione.
Notwithstanding many such little quarrels we liked each other well, and I may here note that when, in the following year, which was the year of our Lord one thousand four hundred and twenty-six, a little son was born to him, since grown to be a right famous painter, known as Giambellini which is to say Giovanni, or Hans, Bellini, I, Margery Schopper, stood his sponsor at the font.
Like most of the other great painters, Giovanni Bellini had many pupils working under him boys who helped their master, and learned their lessons by watching him work. Among these pupils was a boy called Vittore Carpaccio, a sharp, clever lad, with keen bright eyes which noticed everything.
Having finished with this room, one ought really to make directly for Room XVII, although it is a long way off, for that room is given to Giovanni Bellini, and Giovanni Bellini was the instructor of Titian, and Tintoretto was the disciple of Titian, and thus, as we are about to see Titian and Tintoretto at their best here, we should get a line of descent.
