G I U LI O CAM PAG N OL A / Landscape, and Venetian illumination
Illuminated Venetian Documents,” Bulletin du Musée
Hongrois des Beaux Arts 95 (2001): pp. 59-78; and by
the same author, “Painters and Patrons in Venetian
Documents,” Le commissioni ducali nelle collezioni dei
Musei Civici Veneziani, special edition of Bolletino dei
Musei Civici Veneziani 8/3 (2013): pp. 25-40.
Venice, Biblioteca Correr, Ms. Classe III 203. For a
discussion of this manuscript in relation to Bordon
see Susy Marcon, “Un aldina miniata,” in Aldo
Manuzio e l’ambiente veneziano, eds. Susy Marcon and
Marino Zorzi (Venice: Libreria Sansoviniana, 1994),
pp. 125-126. For the procurators of San Marco and
the decoration of their commissions see Szépe, Venice
Illuminated, pp. 115-154; and Chambers, “Merit and
Money.”
See Hind, Early Italian Engraving, no. 14, p. 202; and
Zucker, The Illustrated Bartsch, no. 18.0144, pp. 86-87.
For Jacometto's painting see Andrea Bayer in The
Renaissance Portrait: From Donatello to Bellini, eds. Keith
Christiansen and Stefan Weppelmann, exh. cat. (New
York: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2011), no.
152a, pp. 346-349.
For Jacometto’s work as an illuminator see Giovanna
Mariani Canova, La miniatura veneta del Rinascimento:
1450-1500 (Venice: Alfieri, 1969), pp. 44, 111112. The continued esteem with which Venetian
collectors regarded the work of Jacometto is indicated
by the relatively high monetary value (at least 40
ducats) placed on a Book of Hours containing four
illuminations by the artist seen by Michiel in the
collection of Andrea Odoni, inherited from his uncle,
Francesco Zio, but evidently originally commissioned
by connoisseur’s kinsman, Giovanni Michiel, see
Michiel, Notizie, p. 55. Odoni also owned a book of
hours containing an illumination depicting David by
Bordon. See Rosella Lauber in Il collezionismo d’arte a
Venezia, eds. Linda Borean et al. (Venice: Fondazione
di Venzia, 2008), pp. 298-299, and 326-328.

Borso tra Tardogotico e Rinascimento,” in La Bibbia di
Borso d’Este, 2 vols. (Modena: Franco Cosimo Panini,

in an illumination by Taddeo Crivelli in a Decameron
produced for one of Borso’s courtiers, Oxford,
Bodleian Library, Ms. Holkham misc. 49, fol. 5, see
Jonathan Alexander, The Painted Book (New Haven:
Yale University Press, 2016), pp. 80-81.

see Szépe, Venice Illuminated, pp. 98-101; and Szépe,
Painters and Patrons, pp. 27-28. This scholar notes
the apparent influence on Leonardo in this work of
Franco de Russi, who was involved in the illumination
of Borso d’Este’s famous Bible.
See Bayer in Christansen and Weppelmann, The
Renaissance Portrait, p. 346.

painting in the period see Mauro Lucco in Bellini,

Oberhuber in Oberhuber and Sheehan, Early Italian
Engraving, pp. 402-403, abandoned the traditional,
mature dating on account of the figure’s style.
See recently Hope, “Drawings, Attribution and
Evidence,” pp. 76-79.
Giulio’s figure of Saint John the Baptist seems to
copy in reverse the figure in a print by Girolamo
Moccetto who seems in other cases to have had access
to Mantegna’s designs, see Brooke, “Tratta da Zorzi,”
pp. 229-236. Giulio’s figure diverges from Moccetto’s
most significantly in the facial features.

author makes the observation that in this commission,
as in the 1516 Giustiani Commission, Saint Mark
lacks a halo. This is also true of Antonio Grimani’s
Promissio.

influence of northern European painting and prints
on the development of landscape imagery in Venice
is beyond the scope of this essay. See Beverly L.

Sixteenth-Century Venice,” in Renaissance Venice and
