Washington DC's National Gallery of Art holds 17 works by Titian (1488–1576) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Titian's career spanned over seventy years, and his late work — loose, almost impressionistic in handling — anticipates everything that would come after. In person, his use of colour is revelatory: the Venetian palette, warm and rich, with shadows that glow rather than merely darken.
