  Veronese: Le Storie di Ester Rivelate gets red... wine!
After a long and complex restoration of the stunning setting of the Palazzo Grimani in Venice, three masterpieces by Paolo Veronese will be on show until 24th July.

Palazzo Grimani will host  the paintings depicting the “Ripudio di Vasti”, “Ester incoronata da Assuero” and the “Trionfo di Mardocheo”.

These paintings represent some scenes of the Old Testament Book of Ester.
At the end of the exhibition the paintings will return permanently to their original location, about twelve feet high in San Sebastiano’s church. The exhibition is a unique opportunity for a closer look to these artworks.

The exhibition edited by Giulio Manieri Elia, is promoted by the Soprintendenza speciale per il Patrimonio Storico, Artistico ed Etnoantropologico e per il Polo museale della città di Venezia e dei comuni della Gronda lagunare in collaboration with the Patriarchal Curia Venice and Save Venice Inc.

Wednesday at 5.30 pm visitors can take part in an original event: in the end of the guided visit, they will savour the “Rosso Veneziano” bitter and taste typical local products. It’s a chance for you for a complete overview of the paintings and gets a different interpretation of the show.
