The Art Newspaper reports that they're installing new LED lights in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice, to better show the wonderful pictures by Tintoretto - including his masterpiece, The Crucifixion. More here.

By the way - I once made a short BBC documentary about art in Venice, with Alastair Sooke, and we did a bit on the Tintorettos in the Scuola. Part 1 here, and 2 here.
