Biography (0 words)
Jacopo Bassano's popular realism was underpinned by his exceptional use of light and characterized by the lifelike quality of the people and details, especially the animals, in his pictures.
Over the years his oeuvre became increasingly grand and dramatic, starting with a series of altarpieces (in Bassano, Treviso, Padua, and Belluno) whose production dates from the 1550s through to the end of his career.
Bassano had four painter sons who continued his style - Francesco the Younger (1549-92), Gerolamo (1566-1621), Giovanni Battista (1553-1613), and Leandro (1557-1622).
The history (0 words)
Vicenza, aware of the strategical importance of the new settlement, imposed its dominion on Bassano, obliging an assembly of 800 inhabitants an oath of loyalty and obedience (1175).
In the following decades the history of Bassano intertwined with the political and military events of the Ezzelinis, a powerful family of land owners, whose wealth increased with the blessing of the Bishop of Vicenza with the institution of taxes known as “decime”.
The territory of Bassano stretched to the east towards Pove, Cassola and Rossano, to the south towards Tezze sul Brenta, northwards to Primolano, while westwards to the Brenta river.
