ABOUT THE ARTIST: Tiziano Vecellio, better known as Titian (c. 1488–1576), was one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance and the leading master of the Venetian School. Renowned for his rich colors, expressive brushwork, and masterful use of light, Titian transformed Renaissance painting and profoundly influenced generations of artists. His portraits, religious works, and mythological scenes display a remarkable combination of beauty, emotion, and sensuality, establishing him as one of the most influential painters in the history of Western art. ABOUT "AFFRESCO" Any art lover, as well as anyone who has visited Italy, must have had the opportunity to appreciate an affresco painting. Most prominent ancient Roman paintings consist of affresco, as do the holy stories depicted within medieval churches. The magnificent decorations found within the halls of villas dating from the fifth, sixth, and seventh centuries also feature affresco paintings. The affresco painting method is the basis for the most impressive mural works of Italian art and is considered the most widely used artistic technique during the Renaissance by world-renowned artists such as Botticelli, Michelangelo, Raffaello, Signorelli, and Piero della Francesca, among others.
