Faith in Art

Tintoretto (real name - Jacopo Robusti) was a Venetian who painted his Last Supper in 1594.  The artist was an admirer and a probably student of the master Titian.  This painting, like most of Tintoretto’s, shows an incredible use of muted colors.  It was also an unusual work in its almost casual blend of the ‘real world’ and the supernatural.

    tintoretto was a genius , as someone who can understand art ,i would say art shouldnt have to be beautifull,as rembrandt work were said to be more ugly but it depends upon how the artist wants it to be,and a real artist would depict it by himself..only if he has got the freedom unlike dring renaissance…his work is osome and dramatic it feels more closer to common men
