History
Emmanuel was born in Corfu. His father was Georgios Tzanfournaris. He was a famous painter. His father painted the church Pantokratoras in the town of Zigos in Corfu. Emmanuel's teacher was the famous Cretan painter Thomas Bathas. Around 29 years of age Emmanuel moved to Venice. He stayed in Venice for twenty-eight years. While in Venice he married Eleni Soderini in 1605. They had four children. Theofilakto, Thomas, Andrew, and Roza. Theofilakto was a priest and a painter. His brother Thomas became a lawyer. Emmanuel's signature is present within the Greek community from 1611-1629. In 1623 he was elected Vicar. He was the representative of a bishop. By 1625, someone else was elected Vicar. He also paid his dues as a member of the Greek Community every year. He died at 61 years old in 1631. In Venetian public records, he is known as Manuel Zanfornari da Corfou.[5]
Some of his icons can be found in the Greek church in Venice San Giorgio dei Greci. His son inherited two of his icons. A will executed on February 14, 1651, in Venice outlined Theofilakto as the receiver of two paintings. The Kimisis of Saint Spyridon and the Feast of Orthodoxy. On March 1, 1658, Theofilakto gave the icons to the Greek Church in Venice San Giorgio dei Greci. Tzanfournaris became an extremely popular painter. His signature was forged as was the case with many popular artists. His style evolved. His early works exhibited the traditional Cretan School while his later works evolved because of his exposure to the art of Venice. Many artists were influenced by Tzanfournaris namely: Emmanuel Tzanes and Franghias Kavertzas. Emmanuel Tzanes was the priest of San Giorgio dei Greci. Philotheos Skoufos was also briefly in Venice.[6]
