This vintage book contains a biographical account of seminal sixteenth-century Italian painter Titan. Considered to be the most important member of the Venetian School, Tiziano Vecelli's influence on renaissance art was significant, and he not only had a great impact on his contemporaries but continues to influence modern western artists to this day. Highly recommended for those with an interest in Italian art and the renaissance. Contents include: "Titan's Birthplace - Child-work - A. D. 1477 to 1490", "Early Life in Venice - The Period of 'The Tribute Money' - A.D. 1491 to 1508", "Work at Padua - The Period of the 'Assunta' - A. D. 1509 to 1520", "The Doge Grimani - Period of 'The Entombment' - A. D. 1520 to 1523", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
