VITTORIA, Alessandro
(b. 1525, Trento, d. 1608, Venezia

Bust of Domenico Duodo

1596
Marble
Galleria Franchetti, Ca' d'Oro, Venice

In 1591 the death of his second wife, Veronica Lazzarini (whom he had married in 1567), caused Vittoria to restrict his activities still further. For the marble busts of Alvise Tiepolo (1594; Venice, S Antonin), Lorenzo Cappello (c. 1595; Trent, Castello Buonconsiglio) and Domenico Duodo (1596; Venice, Ca' d'Oro), for example, only a standard torso was used in each case.
