Question

The 1989 restoration of a painting by this artist prompted the formation of the APIAH, who objected to the removal of a reddish-brown hue from a now-green tabard coat. A large dagger and a statue of a sphinx are concealed by the dress of a woman who reaches toward a white-clad Hercules in this artist's Allegory of Virtue and Vice. A string quartet gathers around an hourglass in a painting by this man that was (*) cut in half by Napoleon's troops and transferred to the Louvre, where it is now the largest painting. The presence of slaves, jesters, and drunken German soldiers (10[1])in another of this man's paintings drew the attention of the Inquisition, prompting him to change its title from The Last Supper. For 10 points, name this Venetian painter of The Wedding at (10[1])Cana (10[1])and The Feast in the House of Levi. ■END■
