Description
An account of the resource
This painting is a capital example of Balestra’s style in its first moments of full synthesis. The diagonal armature and regular construction of its compositions are clichés of late-century Roman altarpieces, and passages like the figure of Pope Paul are so controlled that they suggest an actually Roman hand. But the complication of certain tones and the personality of other passages, like the figure of Saint Zeno, betray Venetian authorship. Featuring Zeno, the patron saint of Verona, and Paul V, the early 17th-century pope who asserted eccelesiastical authority against a defiant Venice, this picture along with its pair was surely conceived as a pendant for an orthodox setting, perhaps a cleric’s private residence, in Balestra’s native city.
