- Abstract
One of outstanding features of the show was the number of paintings that underwent conservation treatment for the exhibition, including two of the artist's most celebrated canvases from the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni. In the exhibition's second venue in Venice, there will be a different group of drawings and a variation in the selection of paintings, although these changes are not noted in the exhibition catalogue. In an exemplary survey of the artist's work, the Washington exhibition gathered together forty-five paintings and thirty drawings attributed to the artist and organized them into seven sections on a loosely chronological basis. "Vittore Carpaccio: Master Storyteller of Renaissance Venice", held at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC and curated by Peter Humfrey, constituted the first monographic exhibition dedicated to the Venetian artist in the United States and the first to be staged outside of Italy.
