Description: | This work is probably an eighteenth-century, strikingly exact, copy of Titian's painting Titian, Andrea de Franceschi and the friend of Titian now in Hampton Court Palace (cat.no.X-103) and part of the Royal Collection. Andrea dei Franceschi became Chancellor of Venice in 1525, aged 57. Interestingly, it is thought that the Hampton Court work, originally depicting three heads, was painted by three different hands, though the head on the furthest right was painted out, sometime before 1639.The Shipley work, where only two heads can be seen, can therefore be dated as after this. | Subjects: | portrait (Titian; Andrea dei Franceschi) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Titian (Italian painter and draftsman, ca. 1488-1576) Æ After | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8419... | Go to resource |
