TITAN

PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG WOMAN

Print Vintage circa 1980s

Titian was the greatest painter of 16th-century Venice, and the first painter to have a mainly international clientele. During his long career, he experimented with many different styles of painting which embody the development of art during his epoch.

It is recognised as Portrait of a Girl or Portrait of Lavinia Vecellio because the identity of the woman on the painting is unknown yet Lavinia was the closest figure she resembled due to her light hair. Titian utilises the renaissance painting style to complete the portrait that depicts a young woman slightly clutching her dress. The portrait was completed in circa 1545 by the artist who is known as Tiziano Vecellio often shortened as Titian.
