THE EARLIER WORK OF TITIAN

By Claude Phillips

This is a fully illustrated reprint of a classic study by Claude Phillips, former Keeper of the Wallace Collection in London, on the art and long life of one of the greatest artists in history, Titian Vecelli. The art of Titian spans the whole of the Italian Renaissance, moving through many visual styles, ending up with a striking use of broken colour that looks forward to Impressionism. Titian created the full range of Renaissance artforms, including portraits, self-portraits, mythological and historical subjects, religious pictures, altarpieces, and many important commissions.

The book (first published in 1897) is illustrated by works from the earlier career of Titian’s lengthy and remarkable life. There is also a section on Titian’s contemporaries.
