A Compelling Unorthodox Originality in Venetian Art

Painting by Titian "Assunta" oil on linen 690 × 360 cm 1516-1518

Painting by Titian
“Assunta”
oil on linen
690 × 360 cm
1516-1518

On a BBC show on Venetian Art, it was said that Venetian art had a compelling unorthodox originality.

But until Titian, Venetians were accused of failure to elevate painting out of the material world to an expression of an idea.

Random Quote

If we citizens do not support our artists, then we sacrifice our imagination on the altar of crude reality, and we end up believing in nothing and having worthless dreams.

— Yann Martel
