Pendant ce temps, chez Giovanni Bellini
La vie entière1453
His sister Nicolosia marries Mantegna
Giovanni's sister Nicolosia marries the painter Andrea Mantegna, who becomes kin to the Bellini house; it is his art that will exert the strongest influence on Giovanni.
9 April 1459
The first firm date: a witness before a notary
On 9 April 1459 Giovanni is named as a witness in the records of the Venetian notary Giuseppe Moisis; he already lives on his own in the San Lio quarter but still works in his father's workshop, helping with the largest commissions.
1470
The first commission at the Scuola di San Marco
In 1470 Giovanni receives his first commission, to work with Gentile and other artists at the Scuola di San Marco, where among other subjects he paints a Deluge with Noah's Ark.
November 1471
His mother's will: Giovanni stays out
In November 1471 Anna Rinversi, by now Jacopo's widow, arranges the transfer of his estate to Nicolò, Gentile and Nicolosia; Giovanni declines to take part in the will — to some scholars an indirect sign that he was Gentile's half-brother.
1475
Antonello da Messina in Venice
In 1475 Antonello da Messina arrives in Venice and meets Giovanni Bellini; Antonello's oil-painting methods are visible in many of Bellini's later works.
