Titian's Allegory of Marriage : New Approaches Hardback
Edited by Daniel Unger
Part of the Visual and Material Culture, 1300-1700 series
Hardback
Description
This book offers nine new approaches toward a single work of art, Titian’s Allegory of Marriage or Allegory of Alfonso d’Avalos, dated to 1530/5.
In earlier references, the painting was named simply Allegory, alluding to its enigmatic nature.
The work follows in a tradition of such ambiguous Venetian paintings as Giovanni Bellini’s Sacred Allegory and Giorgione’s Tempest.
Throughout the years, Titian’s Allegory has engendered a range of diverse interpretations.
Art historians such as Hans Tietze, Erwin Panofsky, Walter Friedlaender, and Louis Hourticq, to mention only a few, promoted various explanations.
This book offers novel approaches and suggests new meanings toward a further understanding of this somewhat abstruse painting.
