Titian and the End of the Venetian Renaissance

Meer over het boek

Exploring the complexities of Titian's artistry, this study delves into the tension between his individualism and Venice's conservative painting traditions. It examines how Titian's self-consciously original works often challenged the modest conventions of his adoptive city, leading to conflicts with local artists and patrons. By analyzing his extensive career and diverse output, the book positions Titian as both a product of and a rebel against the Venetian Renaissance, offering a fresh perspective on his significant influence in art history.
