Bevilacqua-Lazise Altarpiece

The Bevilacqua-Lazise Altarpiece is a 1548 oil on canvas painting by Paolo Veronese, now in Castelvecchio Museum in Verona. It was commissioned by the Bevilaqua-Lazise family for their funerary chapel in the church of San Fermo Maggiore in Verona. Two of the family are shown praying in the bottom corners, with John the Baptist and a bishop saint. An early work, it still shows heavy influence from Veronese's teacher Antonio Badile and Michele Sanmicheli.
