Artist: Titian
Titian's Venus of Urbino shows the goddess Venus as a nude woman reclining on a bed in a domestic interior. Painted in Venice in 1538 and commissioned by Guidobaldo II della Rovere, the canvas now hangs in the Uffizi Gallery. This short tour explains what is happening in the scene, how Titian's choices make the figure and setting legible, and what the painting's subject and patronage tell us.
Artist: Titian
A docent-led look at Titian's Assumption of the Virgin in Verona Cathedral. The evidence supplied is thin: the painting's title, artist, location and basic subject are documented, and the visual description is based on a photograph by the uploader, not the artist. This account stays close to those sources, explaining what is shown and where the limits of the evidence lie.
