I sat down with Venetian Renaissance expert Monika Schmitter to discuss the enigmatic Tempest by Giorgione. Why is this image so difficult to define? What is the current state of scholarly interpretation of its form and function? This interview covers the complicated history of the painting, in part responding to Prof. Schmitter's recent publication on the work, available here: https://www.academia.edu/98650605/Describing_Giorgiones_Tempest_Iconography_Genre_Interpretation
Prof. Schmitter is also the author of "The Art Collector in Early Modern Italy: Andrea Odoni and his Venetian Palace," available here:
