The Tempest

Artist

Giorgione

Date

1505–1508 ca.

Where it is

Gallerie dell'Accademia

A landscape crossed by lightning, with enigmatic figures in the foreground.

Its subject is still debated: rather than telling a precise story, the painting builds a mood. Notice how the electric sky ties figures and buildings together.

Display may change due to loans and restoration: check with the museum.
