Italian Early Renaissance Painter, ca.1429-1507 Gentile was born into a family of renowned painters: his father Jacopo Bellini, was a Venetian pioneer in the use of oil paint as an artistic medium; his acclaimed brother was Giovanni Bellini, and his brother-in-law Andrea Mantegna. Gentile was taught painting in the workshop of his father. Although today Gentile is often seen in the shadow of his more famous family members, in his own time he was considered among the greatest living painters in Venice and had no shortage of commissions; his talent as a portraitist revealed itself at an early age.  Related Paintings of BELLINI, Gentile :. | Miracle of the True Cross | Procession in the Piazza di San Marco | The Healing of Pietro dei Ludovici 5 | Miracle of the Cross at the Bridge of S. Lorenzo | Procession in Piazza S. Marco (detail) ll95 |
