Book Description
Excerpt from The Art of the Venice Academy: Containing a Brief History of the Building and of Its Collection of Paintings, as Well as Descriptions and Criticisms of Many of the Principal Pictures and Their Artists Any attempt to describe the collection of pictures in the Royal Gallery of Fine Arts in Venice, better known under its old title of the Academy, is met at once by a difficulty that no amount of effort can wholly overcome. This difficulty is the present ar rangement of the pictures themselves. Theoretic ally they are hung chronologically and by schools. Actually, with the exception of the first room, which holds, and holds only, what its title implies, the works of the early masters, the chronology of the pictures is little regarded. The second room, for instance, which leads directly out of the first, con tains masterpieces of the Renaissance at its height, while the rooms with the examples of the works of the men who led up to this height are numbered 15, 16, I7, 18, and are across the court from the first.
