BERT W. MEIJER - New Light on Cristoph Schwarz in Venice and the Veneto

Before becoming "the pearl of painting in all Germany" as Karel van Mander called him, Christoph Schwarz (Ingolstadt, c. 1548 - Munich 1592) in the years 1570—1573 went to Venice. There he received the essential part of his professional training with Titian. Paolo Veronese, too, became an important model. This is confirmed by Schwarz's small Venetian œuvre, here enlarged by a few easel paintings and by frescoes decorating various rooms on the ground floor of Villa Giunti (now Giacomini) at Magnadola di Cessalto near Treviso. These frescoes were attributed by Ridolfi and the later authors to Paolo Veronese and/or his assistants or pupils.
