Join us for this lively tale of relatives and rivals.

Andrea Mantegna (1431-1506) and Giovanni Bellini (around 1435-1516) were two major painters of the Renaissance period. From very different backgrounds, they became in-laws in 1453 when Mantegna married Bellini's sister, Nicolosia. In this online docent-led talk, we'll examine their two different ways of working which, 500 years ago in Northern Italy, paved the way for modern art. It's a tale of two artists and brothers-in-law that weaves a story of art, family, rivalry, and personality. These two brothers-in-law took very different artistic paths.

Join us LIVE for our semi-monthly docent-led virtual talk inspired by the Timken Collection of European old masters, American art, and Russian icons. Every 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month at 11:00 AM Pacific, we'll be bringing you these virtual art history discussions for FREE, no reservation required. You can join us live on Zoom or Facebook.
