In the early Renaissance Andrea Mantegna was the first to establish the cult of antiquity in Florentine art. His brother-in-law Giovanni Bellini is considered the inventor of Venetian painting. Both are among the most important artists of this epoch. They met in their studios in Venice and influenced each other in their work for many years, but remained rivals throughout their lives.
