1560 (ca.), Jacopo Bassano, Adoration of the Magi -- Kunsthistorisches Museum (Vienna)
From the museum label: With his rural scenes and their convincing realism, Jacopo Bassano brought a new accent to Venetian painting. At the same time, in his finest works including this one, he proved himself to be a leading exponent of Mannerism at the height of that period. With extremely bold contrasts of colour and refined design, he unexpectedly paints realistic details and abstract motifs right next to one another.
