Immerse yourself in the dark tones and rich textures of Tiziano Vecellio (c. 1490-1576) , known simply as Titian, the leading figure in 16th-century Venetian painting. With his daring focus on form and stunning, opulent colours, Titian received numerous prestigious commissions and left behind an incredible repertoire of portraits, mythological paintings, altarpieces and landscapes that make up the most important legacy of Renaissance art.
This rigorous introduction reviews Titian's entire career and his influence as a precursor to several generations of artists , from Diego Velázquez to Van Dyck. From the voluptuous sensuality of the Venus of Urbino (c. 1538) to the aerial dynamism of Bacchus and Ariadne (1520-1523), the main works are included here, showing the artist's stylistic experimentation over time and his constant skill and unique to work different genres and bring a new level of characteristic emotional and spiritual aspect to their songs.
