什麼是貝利尼家族

義大利畫家家族。雅各布.貝利尼（1400年～1470/1471）曾師從法布里亞諾的秦梯利，1440年左右他在威尼斯擁有一間生意興隆的畫室。比他的繪畫作品更爲重要的是保留下來的兩部素描集，裏面有近三百幅素描畫。他是曼特尼亞的岳父。其兒秦梯利（Gentile, 1429年～1507）繼承了他的素描集和畫室。現存重要的秦梯利作品是兩幅巨大的油畫：《真十字架聖物遊行》（1496）和《聖洛倫索橋上的奇蹟》（1500），描繪了當時威尼斯的生活場景。秦梯利的弟弟喬凡尼（Giovanni，亦作Giambellino，1430年～1516）是這個家族最偉大和最多產的畫家。他把威尼斯轉變爲與佛羅倫斯和羅馬並駕齊驅的文藝復興中心之一。喬凡尼是早期的油畫大師，主要畫宗教畫，也擅長人物肖像畫，其中以《洛雷丹總督》（1501?）最爲有名。提香和喬爾喬涅可能在他的工作室受過訓練。亦請參閱Venetian school。

Bellini family

Family of Italian artists. Jacopo Bellini (c. 1400-1470/71) was trained under Gentile da Fabriano, and by c. 1440 he had a thriving studio in Venice. More important than his paintings are his two surviving sketchbooks, which total nearly 300 drawings. He was the father-in-law of Andrea Mantegna. His son Gentile (c. 1429-1507) inherited his father's sketchbooks and took over as head of the studio. His most important extant works are two huge canvases, Procession of the Relic of the True Cross (1496) and Miracle at the Bridge of san Lorenzo (1500), depicting scenes of contemporary Venetian life. Gentile's brother Giovanni (called Giambellino, c. 1430-1516) was the greatest and most prolific artist of the family. He transformed Venice into a Renaissance center rivaling Florence and Rome. Giovanni was an early master of oil painting. Primarily a religious painter, he also excelled at portraits, of which Doge Leonardo Loredan (c. 1501) is his best known. Titian and Giorgione were probably trained in his workshop. See also Venetian school.
