1504
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Triumph of Amphitrite is a 1504 by Luca Cambiaso, a Renaissance work, depicting Putti, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows a scene with Amphitrite, a figure from mythology, in the center. She's surrounded by other figures and sea creatures. The artist used a lot of movement and energy in this piece, which makes it interesting - the way the figures are arranged creates a sense of drama. This drama is highlighted by the way the artist composed the scene. The figures are placed in a way that draws your eye to Amphitrite. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of sfumato.
Luca Cambiaso was an Italian painter and draughtsman and the leading artist in Genoa in the 16th century.
