• Resumen

  • Art historians' horizon of expectation regarding Tintoretto remains profoundly colored by his supposed duality. Tintoretto sought to reconcile the manierà of Titian with that of Michelangelo, to reconcile the irreconcilable disegno with the colorito. He also demonstrated a great diversity of styles, from original pictorial solutions to “pastiches.” Art historians such as Riegl and Dvǒrák put forward the idea of Tintoretto as an “idealist.” Meanwhile, Marxist philosophers see in Tintoretto a “materialistic” painter and a passionate defender of a critical dialectic. Jean-Paul Sartre, in turn, argued that Tintoretto is a theoretical “figure” essential to the history of art, and that through this figure certain ideological “dualities” of the discipline can be grasped.
