“Tiziano e l’immagine della donna nel Cinquecento Veneziano”

In Venice in the sixteenth century, the female image acquires an importance perhaps never seen before in the history of painting. This is due to various factors, such as the presence of Tiziano and other artists working both in Venice and in the mainland, particularly interested in the representation of female beauty, but also, in parallel, to the particular status that women had in Venetian society. The exhibition, created in collaboration with the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, features works by Tintoretto, Veronese, Palma il Vecchio.
