He was trained, together with his brother Giovanni Bellini, in the Venetian studio of his father, Jacopo. But later journeys to carry out different commissions enriched his style, and he forms decisively part of the Renaissance: in Ferrara, in Rímini or in Mantua, where he met Mantegna, who became his brother-in-law on marrying his sister, and from whom he would receive an important influence. In Venice he was the official painter of the Republic, painting numerous official portraits or commemorative landscapes of the canals.
