MORONE, Domenico
(b. ca. 1442, Verona, d. ca. 1518, Verona)
Battle between the Gonzaga and the Bonacolsi
1494
Oil on wood
Palazzo Ducale, Mantua
Francesco Gonzaga commissioned from Morone a painting to celebrate the Gonzaga's installation in Mantua. The theme of the painting was an event in 1328, when Luigi Gonzaga murdered Passerino Bonacolsi and usurped his position as capitano of the city. On a canvas more than three meters wide, Morone painted a view of the piazza in front of the Gonzaga palace as appeared then and filled it with miniature fighting figures. This large work can be placed in the tradition of narrative cycles by artists like Vittore Carpaccio and Gentile Bellini.
