Synopsis

Celebrated for his use of expressive brush marks, which filled his paintings with dynamism, light and colour in a way not seen before in Renaissance art, Tiziano Veccellio became the greatest painter 16thcentury Venice had ever known. In the first half of her beautiful new book, Susie Hodge explores Titian’s fascinating life through his family, friends, patrons and commissions. Starting out as a young apprentice in the great city of Venice, Titian grew up surrounded with spectacular works of art, architecture and sculpture. His early influences and remarkable achievements are explained clearly with informative and attractive illustrations throughout. The second half of the book contains a comprehensive gallery of over 300 of Titian’s major works of art, each of which is accompanied by a thorough analysis of the artwork and its significance within the context of Titian’s life, his rapidly changing technique and his body of work as a whole.
