ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
The Städel Museum devotes a major special exhibition to one of the most momentous chapters in the history of European art: Venetian painting of the Renaissance. Entitled “Titian and the Renaissance in Venice”, the show unites more than a hundred masterpieces – In the early sixteenth century, artists of the “City of Water” developed an independent strain of the Renaissance relying on purely painterly means and the impact of light and colour.
One of their most important exponents was Titian, who would hold the key position in the Venetian art scene all his life.The Frankfurt show assembles more than twenty examples by Titian alone – and thus the most extensive selection of his works ever before on display in Germany. It also presents paintings and drawings by Giovanni Bellini, Jacopo Palma il Vecchio, Sebastiano del Piombo, Lorenzo Lotto, Jacopo Tintoretto, Jacopo Bassano, Paolo Veronese and others.
