Abstract
Paolo Caliari (1528-88), known as Veronese, painted more than a dozen Annunciations and yet, while monographs on the artist provide an overview of his religious paintings, these works are given little attention. My thesis attempts to fill in this gap in the literature. Considering the importance of the Annunciation to Renaissance Venice, I examine Veronese’s numerous paintings of the subject, a number far greater than that of other Venetian artists of his time based on the extant Venetian works focusing on this theme. Creating a catalog of Veronese’s Annunciations, the first catalog to consider all these works in relation to each other, has been central to my research. Based on compilation of the catalog, I propose that Veronese’s Scuola dei Mercanti Annunciation of 1578 became a model for a significant number of Annunciations made by Veronese and his shop in the years following 1578.
