Question
In a painting by this artist, Gabriele Ferretti kneels before a tiny virgin and child that appear in an almond-shaped mandorla unusually hovering in an otherwise naturalistic sky. A peacock perches next to a hanging Ottoman carpet in a painting by this artist that includes a vortex of angels in the sky interpreted by some crackpots as a UFO. In “Notes on Camp,” Sontag illustrates camp’s extravagance through the example of the real (*) jewels that this artist often embedded in paintings. A ray of light strikes Mary on the forehead in a painting by this artist whose foreground contains one of his signature cucumbers hanging off of a ledge. This artist used an increasingly unpopular gilt background for an altarpiece that depicts Thomas Aquinas holding a model church. For 10 points, name this decoration-loving Venetian painter of The Annunciation With St. Emidius. ■END■
