Martyrdom of S. Giustina, c1730s, (1928). Pen with wash. Possibly a preparatory study for the altarpiece in the Church of the Santo in Padua (1734-1737), or a study for the later composition in the Kaiser Friedrich Museum. At one time known to have been in the Former Orloff Collection, Paris, France. Italian Venetian painter and printmaker Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696-1770), worked not only in Italy, but also in Germany and Spain. He was commissioned to carry out frescoes in churches and palaces, and was elected President of the Academy of Padua. As well as his large-scale majestic works, he also produced etchings and oil paintings, and is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of the period.
