Description

  • Jacopo da Ponte, called Jacopo Bassano
  • The Dinner at Emmaus;Christ in the house of Mary and Martha
  • a pair, both oil on canvas

Catalogue Note

The composition of the Dinner at Emmaus was repeated several times by the Bassano workshop while the design of Christ in the house of Mary and Martha is a variant in reverse after Jacopo and Francesco Bassano's signed original in the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation in Houston, Texas (inv. no. 79.13). The execution and colouring are different to the more usual adaptations of these compositions and suggest that the works may be by a foreign artist.
