Facts About Zara Polyptych
The Zadar Polyptych is an oil-on-panel by Italian artist Vittore Carpaccio, painted around 1480–1490. It is now in the Museum of Sacre Art of the Zadar Cathedral, in southern Croatia.
Description
The polyptych includes six panels in two orders; at the center are the scenes of St. Martin and the poor and St. Jerome with the donor.
The figures are painted on a background with rocky hills, with no unitary treatment of the landscape based on geometric perspective but, as in Gentile Bellini's works, with a series of separate blocks.
