Bonifazio Veronese

His work had an important influence on the younger generation of painters in Venice, particularly Andrea Schiavone and Jacopo Tintoretto.

His early work also shows his knowledge of Giorgione and Titian[2] He painted numbers of Sacra conversazioni centred on a Virgin and Child in a landscape, with variable other saints, using similar compositions.

He created a large series of narrative paintings for the Palazzo dei Camerlenghi.

From the 1530s the artist introduced some figurative elements of central Italian origin derived mainly from Raphael.

During those years he made a fortune in Venice[2] Many cassoni and furniture decorations are attributed to him.
