Tiziano Vecellio (Titian) (i) - Oil (i) - High Renaissance (i)

Tiziano Vecellio, also known as Titian, was an Italian painter who is considered one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance period. His painting, The Venus of Urbino, is a true masterpiece that showcases his exceptional skills in capturing the beauty and sensuality of the female form.

Description of The Venus of Urbino

The Venus of Urbino was completed in 1538 and is an oil painting on canvas that measures 119 x 165 cm. It depicts a nude young woman, identified with the goddess Venus, reclining on a couch or bed in the sumptuous surroundings of a Renaissance palace. Titian has domesticated Venus by moving her to an indoor setting, engaging her with the viewer, and making her sensuality explicit. Devoid as it is of any classical or allegorical trappings - Venus displays none of the attributes of the goddess she is supposed to represent - the painting is unapologetically erotic.

Interpretations of The Venus of Urbino

Interpretations of the painting fall into two groups; both agree that the painting has a powerful erotic charge, but beyond that, it is seen either as a portrait of a courtesan, perhaps Zaffetta, or as a painting celebrating the marriage of its first owner. This disagreement forms part of a wider debate on the meaning of the mainly Venetian tradition of the reclining female nude, which Titian had created, or helped to create, some 25 years before with the Dresden Venus of around 1510–11.
