Triumph of Love, Titian Via ArtInfo

While the key aim of the exhibit is locating the use of paintings as reverses and covers during Italian Renaissance, the main attraction of it- is Titian’s rediscovered “Triumph of Love.”   “Triumph of Love” (mid 1540s maybe) has undergone conservation and cleaning and will be publicly displayed for the first time in 50 years. It was last shown at the Royal Academy in 1960. The painting will be moved to the Ashmoleon Museum in Oxford after the show at the National Gallery is over September 20, 2009.
