Le Tintoret
1518 (Venise) / 1594 (Venise)
"Tintoret discourages and repels. He makes the spectator an actor and pushes the amateur. He surprises you, seizes you and constrains you. It only remains to the one who was about to observe and to judge to turn away or to enter in the dance. One cannot, whatever the desire, stop on one of the characters without being pushed towards his neighbor, the one that he indicates by a gesture, a movement of arm, a glance, a torsion, a supplication, finally an unbalance."
