Titian
Description
Tiziano Vecellio, known to English speakers as Titian, did more to establish the principles of modern painting than any of his Florentine contemporaries. Unlike the Italian masters that had preceded him, Titian painted mostly in oil. His radical approach to light, color and composition, and free brush strokes set him apart. Titian's fame spread far and wide, making him perhaps the first truly international artist. Works featured in this program include "The Assumption of the Virgin," "Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari," "The Pesaro Altarpiece," "Bacchus and Ariadne," "Portrait of Charles V with Hound," "The Venus of Urbino," and "Diana and Callisto.
