Витторе Карпаччо (~1455 - 1526), итальянский художник
Vittore Carpaccio, an Italian painter. »
He executed four cycles of narrative paintings, of which only the first two are notable.
The first was The Legend of St Ursula (nine large paintings, 1490...95, Venice: Academy of Fine Arts), considered his finest work.
The second cycle consists of nine scenes that are mainly from the lives of SS George and Jerome (1502...07, Venice: Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavone).

Carpaccio was one of the most able painters of the early Renaissance in Venice. His drawing is sometimes faulty; his use of color, however, is clear and harmonious, and he handles light and atmosphere with masterly effect.

The quality of Carpaccio's use of colour and his power of expression and invention decreased in his last religious paintings, for the most part executed by his assistants. But in at least two of his late works, where the subject matter stimulated his imagination, Carpaccio returned to the creative levels of his earlier periods.
