This title was first published in 2001: Paolo Veronese: Piety and
Display in an Age of Religious Reform examines the large body of
religious paintings with which Veronese (1528 -1588) played a
crucial role in shaping Venetian piety. With 117 illustrations (26
in colour) Richard Cocke sets Veronese's work into context, arguing
his mastery of narrative has long been neglected, largely as a
result of Sir Joshua Reynolds's criticism in his Discourses. The
new expressiveness of Veronese's work in his final decade is linked
with the decrees of the Council of Trent, which resulted in an
enhanced display of paintings in Venetian palaces during the 1570s,
matched by the renewed decorative schemes in the city's churches.
