13 January – 26 February 2012 .......Titian - Diana and Actaeon
Work of Renaissance master on display at Walker Art Gallery One of the most important paintings in Britain is going on display at the Walker Art Gallery. Diana and Acteaon by Titian, considered to be among his greatest works.as Part of a National Gallery UK tour.
Diana and Actaeon is one of six large-scale mythological paintings inspired by the Roman poet Ovid that Titian painted for King Philip II of Spain. Titian began the picture and its companion Diana and Callisto in 1556, the year of Philip’s coronation. Spurred on by the prestige of royal patronage, he unleashed all his creativity to produce works of unprecedented beauty and inventiveness.
Titian worked for three years to perfect these masterpieces, which were shipped to Spain in 1559. He claimed their lengthy genesis was due to the relentless pains he took to make sumptuous works of art worthy of the king.
