Venetian painting appears to undergo a fundamental change in the mid-sixteenth century transition from Bellini to Tintoretto with a stylistic rupture that has been called a \u201ccaesura.\u201d This paper argues the contrary: the so-called eyewitness generation and later mannerist paintings are in fact united by mode. Two interrelated pictorial strategies of folded time and space allow paintings to span the centuries and Mediterranean in the same way in which the city&#8217;s patron saint had journeyed from foreign lands to Venice. Civic identity and pictorial mode model the foundational event in Venetian life: the translation of St. Mark in the ninth century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer class=\"entry-meta\"><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<article id=\"post-4403\" class=\"post-4403 fa_events type-fa_events status-publish hentry fa_event_type-event-staff\">\n<header class=\"entry-header\"><\/header>\n<\/article>\n<p><strong>Speaker: Letha Ch&#8217;ien<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Letha Ch&#8217;ien is a visiting lecturer in Art History at UC Davis.
