His works encompassed various themes and subjects, showcasing his exceptional talent and artistic versatility. One of his notable paintings is "Venus, " created in 1528. This masterpiece portrays the goddess of love and beauty in all her glory. Palma il Vecchio's attention to detail brings Venus to life, capturing her elegance and sensuality with every brushstroke. Another captivating piece by Palma il Vecchio is "Visitation; Saint Elizabeth embracing the Virgin at center as Saint Joseph walks to. " This painting depicts a poignant biblical scene where Saint Elizabeth embraces the Virgin Mary while Saint Joseph watches on. The artist skillfully conveys emotions through their expressions, making this artwork truly moving. In "Two Nymphs at Rest (Jupiter and Callisto?), " painted around 1520, Palma il Vecchio explores mythological themes. The serene atmosphere captured in this piece suggests that it may depict Jupiter resting alongside Callisto. The artist's ability to create an ethereal ambiance adds depth to this composition. "Christ resurrected, " painted in the mid-17th century by Remoldus Eynhoudts but inspired by Palma il Vecchio's style, showcases Christ's triumphant resurrection. Through vibrant colors and meticulous details, Eynhoudts pays homage to Palma il Vecchio's influence on religious art during that era, also skilled at portraiture as seen in his work "Portrait of a young woman in profile" from around 1520. With delicate brushstrokes, he captures the subject's beauty while emphasizing her profile—a testament to his ability to convey personality through portraiture. "The Virgin and Child with Saints and a Donor" is another remarkable piece by Palma il Vecchio, created between 1518 and 1520.
