DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book explores the artworks of Titian during his later years. He was an Italian (Venetian) painter of the Renaissance, considered the most important member of the 16th-century Venetian school. Recognized by his contemporaries as "The Sun Amidst Small Stars" (recalling the final line of Dante's Paradiso), Titian was one of the most versatile of Italian painters, equally adept with portraits, landscape backgrounds, and mythological and religious subjects. His painting methods, particularly in the application and use of color, exercised a profound influence not only on painters of the late Italian Renaissance, but on future generations of Western artists.
