See the original at Palazzo Ducale (Doge's Palace) in Venice
by Paolo Veronese, 1585
Paolo Veronese painted this magnificent ceiling painting in 1585 to glorify the Venetian Republic. Located in the Hall of the Great Council at Palazzo Ducale, the oval canvas measures approximately 904 by 579 centimeters. The composition uses the di sotto in su technique, meaning viewers look upward into an illusionistic heavenly space.
At the center, a personification of Venice sits enthroned like the Virgin Mary, holding a scepter and surrounded by allegorical Virtues. The towers of the Venetian Arsenal flank her, symbolizing the city's military might. Above, a winged Victory descends to crown her with laurels. Veronese's brilliant colors and dramatic foreshortening make the figures appear to float in golden clouds, celebrating Venice's wealth and divine favor at the height of its power.
