Giovanni Bellini was initially taught by his father Jacopo Bellini whose icon-like method and manner influenced his early work. When Giovanni?s sister Nicosia married Andrea Mantegna in 1453, close relations between Venice and Padua were established, and Giovanni began to explore the physical and special representation of the Early Renaissance. Under Mantegna?s influence his style assumed temporarily a certain calligraphic precision: Transfiguration (c 1460). Read Giovanni Bellini's Full Biography
