{"exhibit":{"id":14,"title":"Classical Mythology in Venetian Arts ","description":"<p class=\"p1\">New interpretations will always be invited by myth<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> and this has caused it to be reinvented for each century. [1]The God of the ancient world has remained an integrated component of Venice's common language<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> an expression transmitted throughout history by artists and viewers. It can appear implausible and bewildering to the tales themselves. From violence to ecstasy<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> from cruelty to sadness<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> from a simple desire to romantic love<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> the spectrum of human emotions they discuss is very wide. The myths are also \"socially powerful\": what this suggests is that they react to things that are profoundly related to cultural and religious values<span class=\"s1\">,<\/span> [2] as well as the delivery of political knowledge about society. In the following three art galleries, a number of paintings containing classical mythological figures and elements created by Venetian artists for domestic and foreign art commissioners are covered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><\/p>\n<p>[1]Brenner, Carla McKinney, and Julie Warnement. \u201cMyth and Audience.\u201d Introduction.
