Tiepolo was an italian painter and printmaker, mastering the art of etching. He is well known worldwide as he assisted his father in wurzburg (germany), he made stairwell fresco in vicenza (italy) and at the palace of charles iii in madrid (spain). La via crucis is among the earliest works engraved by giandomenico tiepolo, just about twenty years old, where he translates into etchings the namesake series of paintings realised for the oratory of the crucifix of s. Polo’s is among the earliest works engraved by giandomenico tiepolo (venice, 1727-1804), just about twenty years old, where he translates into etchings the namesake series of paintings realised for the oratory of the crucifix of s. Polo’s church in venice in 1747 commissioned by bartolomeo carminati.
