Titian
Titian
His work, prolific due in part to the lenght of his life, which scoped for over almost one complete century, is known by its brightness in general, with a special touch for portraits, as it can be easily checked in many of them, for instance the equestrian portrait of Emperor Charles V in Mühlberg.
His works carry, to sum up, most of the main features of the Venetian school, like the use of vibrant colors which generate a bit of a "chiaroscuro" as well due to the use of them, with the folds of the clothes painted "a la italian", this is, with many curves, and so is painted the female body. Male portraits are able to capture the scent of the personality of the figure, preceding perhaps the mastery in this field of Spanish painter Velázquez.
Titian is, overall, along with Veronés, Palladio (the architect) and Canaletto, one of the main artists related to the Venetian school.
