Happy 500th, Tintoretto — A Retrospective Honors The Venetian Artist

Tintoretto was in his late 20s when he painted this self-portrait circa 1546/48. (Scroll down to compare this portrait to one he painted 40 years later.)

Several of the artworks in the exhibition are coming to the U.S. for the first time. "He never saw a wall that he couldn't envision covered with a large Tintoretto," says co-curator Robert Echols.
