Titian

Diana and Actaeon

US$ 828.00

Actaeon pulls back a curtain and stumbles on Diana bathing with her nymphs; she will turn him into a stag and his own hounds will tear him apart. Titian paints the moment of discovery, not the punishment — a flurry of startled bodies, red drapery and a stag’s skull already mounted on a pillar as a warning nobody heeds.

Artist

Titian (c.1488-1576) dominated Venetian painting for sixty years and effectively invented the modern idea of the artist as an independent creative authority. His late work dissolves into loose, smeared, breathtakingly free brushwork. He painted for popes, emperors and the Spanish crown, and worked until he died of plague in his eighties.
