This is "Vittore Carpaccio", a book about Italian Renaissance Artist of the Venetian School, Student of Bellini, creator of the 'Dream of St. Ursula'. It's a paperback format book with color pictures published in 1996 by Pockets Electa in Milan, Italy. Original Italian text by Stefano Zuffi. English translation by Huw Evans. The book is Out of Print - OP. Vittorio Carpaccio (1465 - c. 1526) was an Italian Renaissance Artist of the Venetian School who studied under Bellini. He was one f the foremost orientalist painters of his generation. With masterly use of color and light, and with a tinge of humanist humor, his paintings are, at least to my 21st century eyes, revelatory. There is a story in every painting . and every painting reveals more upon repeated viewings. The book, issued in paperback format , has a few monochrome illustrations of Carpaccio's drawings, but the bulk of the book is taken up with beautiful, lush reproductions (in miniature, of course) of Carpaccio's major works, including the series devoted to St. Ursula. His depictions of Italian landscapes and city scenes are wonderful. Published by Pockets Electa in Milan Italy, in 1996. Text is by Stefano Zuffi ; English translation by Huw Evans .
