Rome B2 Villa Borghese 064.jpg

Madonna with Child (c. 1510) - Oil on wood, 50 x 41 cm. Giovanni Bellini.

From WIkipedia: Giovanni Bellini (c. 1430 – 1516[1]) was an Italian Renaissance painter, probably the best known of the Bellini family of Venetian painters. His father was Jacopo Bellini, his brother was Gentile Bellini, and his brother-in-law was Andrea Mantegna. He is considered to have revolutionized Venetian painting, moving it towards a more sensuous and colouristic style. Through the use of clear, slow-drying oil paints, Giovanni created deep, rich tints and detailed shadings. His sumptuous coloring and fluent, atmospheric landscapes had a great effect on the Venetian painting school, especially on his pupils Giorgione and Titian.
