Studio of Jacopo Bassano

c. 1510-1592

Jacopo da Ponte, called Jacopo Bassano from his native town. Venetian School. Born c. 1515; died 1592. His first teacher was no doubt his father, Francesco da Ponte, who was a painter. By 1535 Jacopo was in Venice, where he was perhaps a pupil of Bonifizio Veronese and came under the influence of Lotto. Remarkable originality distinguishes both his early rustic style and the more refined manner which he developed under the influence of engravings after Raphael and etchings by Parmigianino. Francesco and Leandro Bassano are the best known of Jacopo's four painter sons.
