3/3 Born on this day in 1500, Charles V, emperor of everywhere and an incredible traveler. Here, my copy of his portrait by Titian, done after he had (wisely) grown a beard.

Fête Champêtre (possibly with or by Titian, 1508-9). Both Titian & Giorgione were associated. Some claimed he was Titian’s master, others that they were fellow students. However Titian’s early work is derived in part from Giorgione. Their closeness is best shown in this work

Europa, carried away by Zeus disguised as v. alluring bull. Somebody's been looking at Titian, but not liking colore (or clothing): Maerten de Vos of Antwerp, whose day is today.

May 4, 1784: American artist Rubens Peale is born in Philadelphia.

Rubens' father, painter Charles Willson Peale, named a number of his children after famous artists: Rembrandt, Raphaelle, Sophonisba, Titian, and of course Rubens. Many became accomplished artists themselves. 🎨

Venus and Adonis, by Titian, in the Prado in Madrid. Titian painted several versions of this myhtology - this is thought to be the earliest surviving version. Sensuous!

Adoration of the Magi, by Jacopo Bassano, now in Barcelona. Tintoretto once said to Bassano: ‘Ah, Jacopo, if you had my drawing and I had your color, I would defy the devil himself to enable Titian, Raphael, and the rest to make any show beside us...” How true!
