The “A Masterpiece for Venice” project opens the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the death of Giovanni Bellini (Venice c. 1430–1516) at Museo Correr, where L’ebbrezza di Noè (The Drunkenness of Noah) – one of the greatest masterpieces of this major protagonist of the Italian Renaissance – will be shown from 5 March to 18 June 2016.

The work, which was probably Bellini’s last, was painted in 1515 and was attributed to him definitely over the course of the twentieth century after four centuries of discussion.
