About the piece
Created in 1747 by the renowned Venetian master Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, this work is a pinnacle of Rococo religious art. The composition is defined by its sweeping verticality and the brilliant use of light across the sky, which contrasts the somber subject with a sense of celestial drama. The artist's confident brushwork and sophisticated palette create a powerful, atmospheric scene that captures both the humanity and the divinity of the biblical moment.
