Veronese, Paolo, painter of the Venetian school, born at Verona, whence his name; studied under an uncle, painted his “Temptation of St. Anthony” for Mantua Cathedral, and settled in Venice in 1555, where he soon earned distinction and formed one of a trio along with Titian and Tintoretto; the subjects he treated were mostly scriptural, the most celebrated being the “Marriage Feast at Cana of Galilee,” now in the Louvre (1528‒1588).
