{"product_id":"holy-family-with-two-donors-vittore-carpaccio","title":"Holy Family with Two Donors - Vittore Carpaccio","description":"\u003cp\u003eA devotional panel by Vittore Carpaccio, featuring the Holy Family alongside two kneeling donors set against an expansive, detailed Venetian landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVittore Carpaccio, a Venetian master of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, produced this work during a period when the city was a nexus of trade and cultural exchange. The composition follows the tradition of the devotional panel, yet it incorporates the expansive, detailed backgrounds that define Carpaccio's output. The central figures of the Holy Family are positioned in the foreground, accompanied by two kneeling donors who commission the work as an act of piety. The figures are rendered with a focus on their individual features and the textures of their garments, reflecting the artist's attention to contemporary fashion and social status.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe background is particularly notable for its depth and narrative quality. Carpaccio includes a wide, open vista featuring rocky outcrops, distant hills, and riders on horseback. This inclusion of secular, anecdotal detail within a sacred scene is a hallmark of the Venetian school, which often sought to ground religious narratives in a recognisable, albeit idealised, world. The light is soft and even, illuminating the figures without harsh shadows, which allows the viewer to examine the subtle variations in colour across the landscape and the drapery of the robes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarpaccio was known for his narrative cycles, and this smaller-scale work retains that sense of storytelling. The presence of the ox, resting quietly near the Virgin, provides a grounding element to the scene. The donors, depicted with a sense of solemnity, are integrated into the composition through their posture and gaze, bridging the gap between the viewer and the divine subjects. This print captures the specific tonal qualities of the original panel, preserving the balance between the intimate foreground and the expansive, atmospheric distance that characterises the artist's approach to spatial construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/guillaume-bude-jean-clouet-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eGuillaume Budé - Jean Clouet — Jean Clouet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/mary-magdalene-luca-signorelli\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMary Magdalene - Luca Signorelli — Luca Signorelli\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vittore Carpaccio","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526955340111,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526965465423,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526965498191,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526965530959,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526965563727,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526965596495,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526965629263,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526965662031,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526965694799,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526965727567,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526965760335,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526965793103,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Holy-Family-with-Two-Donors_Poster_CompositorV1_1786493799129.jpg?v=1787234014","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/holy-family-with-two-donors-vittore-carpaccio","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
