{"product_id":"titian","title":"Titian","description":"\u003cb\u003eA \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e best art book of 2021\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Titian (active 1506–1576) produced a masterful group of paintings for Philip II of Spain, celebrating the loves of gods, goddesses, and mortals. Depicting scenes from Ovid’s narrative poem \u003ci\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/i\u003e, Titian named them “poesie” and considered the works as visual equivalents of poetry. This volume presents a detailed study of the complete series—\u003ci\u003eDanaë\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e, Venus and Adonis\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003ci\u003e Perseus and Andromeda\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003ci\u003e Diana and Actaeon\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003ci\u003e Diana and Callisto\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Rape of Europa\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as \u003ci\u003eThe Death of Actaeon\u003c\/i\u003e—lavishly illustrated with details of these emotionally charged paintings. The book explores Titian’s creative process and technique, in addition to his use of literary and visual sources and his correspondence with Philip II. The artistic legacy of the series for later European painting is also examined in the works of artists such as Rubens, Velázquez, and Rembrandt. Offering the most comprehensive overview of these remarkable works, \u003ci\u003eTitian: Love, Desire, Death\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable resource for scholars and admirers of Renaissance painting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished by National Gallery Company\/Distributed by Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eNational Gallery, London\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (March 16–June 14, 2020)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNational Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (July 11–September 27, 2020)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIsabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (February 11–May 9, 2021)","brand":"Nathaniel Silver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42839010279485,"sku":"9781857096552","price":55.76,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9781857096552_ebd36e76-c67c-4f5b-9884-4e07029e9934.jpg?v=1766952453","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/titian","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
