 His paintings are mostly portraits or half-length groups of religious figures.He painted a live "Sparrowhawk"(National Gallery, London), which is probably a fragment of a larger work.The very early still-life of a "Still-Life with Partridge and Gauntlets" (Alte Pinakothek, Munich) is often called the first small scale "trompe l'oeil" painting since antiquity; it may well have been the cover or reverse of a portrait (however, a fragmentary panel by another Venetian, Vittorio Carpaccio, has a trompe l'oeil letter-rack of about 1490 on the reverse).
