The first three decades of the sixteenth century represent, visually and intellectually, the most exciting phase of the Renaissance in Venicewhen Giorgione and the young Titian, together with Sebastiano del Piombo, Palma Vecchio, and others, were working alongside the older master Giovanni Bellini. This beautiful book presents an innovative survey of sixty Venetian Renaissance paintings of the caliber of Bellini and Titian’s Feast of the Gods in Washington and Giorgione’s Laura and Three Philosophers in Vienna.Unlike previous surveys of the period, this book refrains from dividing up the artists represented and instead explores the interrelationships between them. Through a series of thematic sections, the authors trace the rise of secular subjectspastoral landscapes, female nudes, and romantic portraitsand the transformation of religious ones as well as innovations in style and technique. Cutting across genres, the book also focuses on the overarching themes of music, love, and time.Featuring essays by leading scholars, detailed entries on some of the most renowned pictures of sixteenth-century Italy, and revealing technical information, Bellini, Giorgione, Titian, and the Renaissance of Venetian Painting is an essential volume to own.

Scholars have long debated the mystery of Titian’s later works. His palette, so extraordinarily expressive, makes one ask whether his paintings are to be looked at as a visionary achievement or simply as unfinished works. Taking fully into account his cultural milieu, and enriched by studies on the patrons and collectors of Titian’s works as well as on his contemporaries (in particular Schiavone, Tintoretto, and Jacopo Bassano), this volume gives definitive answers to many questions while delving deeper into the great master’s life.
