Paintings between 1525 and 1533 (Venice)
by Lorenzo Lotto

In 1525 Lotto moved to Venice to receive a commission for a prestigious Dominican altarpiece for the newly canonized St Antoninus at Santi Giovanni e Paolo. (In fact, he did not execute the work until 1542.) His only major Venetian altarpiece, St Nicholas in Glory with Sts John the Baptist and Lucy (1527-29), was commissioned by the Scuola dei Mercanti. The St Lucy Altarpiece for Iesi was commissioned earlier, in 1523, but was delivered only in 1532. On the other hand, Lotto enjoyed considerable success in the private sphere, painting portraits and smaller-scale devotional works for Venetian palaces.
