Description
|
|
|
|
Betrothal, marriage, the birth of a child—these were moments of utmost significance in the lives of Italian men and women of the Renaissance, marked by grand celebrations where extraordinary objects were commissioned or exchanged as gifts. From these precedents, an increasingly inventive approach to subjects of love and marriage culminated in paintings by artists like Giulio Romano, Lorenzo Lotto, and Titian. Examining 153 such works in detail—from a footed blue glass bowl from Murano, with an enameled and gilded cavalcade of young men and women prancing around it, to Titian's 1565 painting Venus Blindfolding Cupid—this catalog is illuminated with 200 color and 50 black and white plates and figures.
