The story of Castelfranco Madonna

Giorgione painted this oil-on-panel altarpiece (200.5 by 144.5 cm) for the condottiero Tuzio Costanzo, in memory of his son Matteo, who died in 1499 while serving Venice. It stood in the family chapel until the old church was replaced by the present cathedral in 1724. It was stolen in 1972, restored in 2002-2003 and returned to Castelfranco in December 2005.

Giorgione

Giorgio Barbarelli da Castelfranco, known as Giorgione, was an Italian painter of the Venetian school during the High Renaissance, who died in his thirties. He is known for the elusive poetic quality of his work, though only about six surviving paintings are firmly attributed to him. The uncertainty surrounding the identity and meaning of his work has made Giorgione one of the most mysterious figures in European art.
