  Biography
Paolo Veronese was an Italian Renaissance painter; one of the great masters of the Venetian school.
Veronese combined these elements of the local High Renaissance style with Mannerist elements, including complex compositional schemes that often employ a “worm's-eye view” perspective and Michelangelesque figures in powerful foreshortened or contorted poses.
Veronese's growing interest in scenographic architecture, inspired partly by the real architecture of such contemporaries as Palladio and partly by contemporary stage settings, is spectacularly evident in the vast Marriage at Cana (1562-63, Louvre, Paris), virtually a cityscape with incidental figures.

Veronese combined these elements of the local High Renaissance style with elements of Mannerism, including complex compositional schemes that often employ a so-called worm's-eye view perspective and figures reminiscent of those of Italian artist Michelangelo, in powerful foreshortened or contorted poses.
Veronese's growing interest in the artistic representation of architecture, inspired partly by the real architecture of such contemporaries as Palladio and partly by contemporary theater stage settings, is evident in his vast Marriage at Cana (1562-1563, Louvre, Paris), virtually a cityscape in which figures receive only incidental attention.
In 1573 Veronese was charged with impiety by the Holy Office of the Inquisition for his painting The Last Supper, a depiction of Jesus Christ and his disciples in a grand Venetian gallery adorned with animals, clowns, and other colorful figures.

Veronese ranks among the greatest of Venetian decorative painters for his harmonious tonalities and rich textures.

In fact, Paolo Veronese is pre-eminently a painter working pictorially, and in no wise amenable to a literary or rationalizing standard.
In the moderation of art combined with its profusion he far excelled Rubens; for, dazzling as is the first impression of a great work by Veronese, there is in it, in reality, as much of soberness and serenity as of exuberance.
Of all Veroneses paintings the one which has obtained the greatest world-wide celebrity is the vast Marriage at Cana, now in the Louvre.

 Ruskin MP I Notes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Veronese is associated with another change in his ways of looking at painting in Ruskin's diary entry of 8 September 1849.
In The Stones of Venice, Ruskin cites Veronese as evidence that 'the fifteenth century had taken away the religious heart of Venice'; 'vital religion' had been replaced with the 'forms of religion', and 'rhetoric' replaced truth (Works, 9.32).
However in 1858, it is the truth of Veronese, and Tintoretto, which is stressed by Ruskin.

Quando Paolo Veronese ricevette la catena d'oro dalle mani di Tiziano, il vecchio pittore era oramai sul punto di ritirarsi in un mondo pittorico del tutto personale, dove nessuno sarebbe stato in grado di seguirlo malgrado ogni sforzo di volontà o la migliore delle preparazioni.
Sarebbe tuttavia un errore pensare che il disegno di queste grandi aule a colonne gli sia stato fornito da un architetto: Paolo Veronese aveva ormai dimostrato di essere perfettamente in grado di crearle da solo.
Il Veronese era a metà del suo lavoro quando l'incendio del 1577 spazzò via le altre due ali del palazzo, distruggendo alcune sue opere importanti come il telero del Barbarossa, ma dei suoi contributi al restauro di questi ambienti si dirà più avanti.

 Veronese (Paolo Caliari)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Working at the same time as Titian and Tintoretto, Veronese captured the brilliance and pageantry of sixteenth-century Venice and established its tradition of grand, trompe l'oeil decorative painting that was to culminate in the work of the Tiepolo family.
Veronese's confident ability to handle complicated compositions and varied textures, all bathed in a cool, sparkling light, found immediate acceptance and he never lacked for commissions.
Under questioning, Veronese coolly defended his right to pictorial license and side-stepped the problem by changing the title of the offending picture to Feast in the House of Levi.

Delagnes then complained that Veronese had approached officers on five occasions, had vented about police staffing issues and had told them that they and their union would be better off without Delagnes.
Veronese, a former district attorney's investigator, said Delagnes' warning to stay away from officers amounted to a threat.
