## Bio

Born around 1488 near Belluno, Tiziano Vecellio built a career that moved from Venetian commissions to the courts of north Italian princes, then to the Habsburgs and the papacy. With Giorgione, he founded the Venetian school of Renaissance painting, working portraits, mythological scenes, and religious subjects with equal command. His method — especially his handling of color — influenced not just his Italian contemporaries but generations of Western painters who followed. Over his long life his style shifted dramatically: the vivid, luminous tints of his early work gave way to loose brushwork and a subtlety of tone that remained original to the end. He died in Venice on 27 August 1576, having been called by Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo "the sun amidst small stars not only among the Italians but all the painters of the world."
