Giorgione
This extraordinary exhibition catalogue explores the rare works of one of the most enigmatic painters of the Renaissance, Zorzi da Castelfranco-universally known as Giorgione (Castelfranco Veneto, 1478-Venezia, 1510)-examining 15 out of an oeuvre of his 25 attributed paintings. Fellow student of Titian under Giovanni Bellini in Venice, almost nothing is known of Giorgione's life except that he worked in Venice, undertook various important commissions in oil and fresco, and died of the plague in his early 30s. A major innovator, he is acclaimed as the father of modern Venetian painting of the 16th century. In his revolutionary brushwork he skilfully combined Leonardo's sfumato with the colour...

Giorgione Or Titian?
Hope uses Portrait of a Man in a Red Cap in the Frick Collection as a starting point for a review of the historical vagaries in attributing paintings to Giorgione or the young Titian. He spends roughly twice as much time on Giorgione, of whom less is known, than on the long-lived, better-documented Titian. He analyzes connoisseurship from Vasari to the present, citing Crowe and Cavalcaselles and Longhi as major influences on the debate. He suggests that archival and historical research might succeed where connoisseurship has failed, hinting that artists beyond the Giorgione/Titian/Sebastiano del Piombo triumvirate might be considered.
Giorgione’s Ambiguity
The Venetian painter known as Giorgione or “big George” died at a young age in the dreadful plague of 1510, possibly having painted fewer than twenty-five works. But many of these are among the most mysterious and alluring in the history of art. Paintings such as The Three Philosophers and The Tempest remain compellingly elusive, seeming to deny the viewer the possibility of interpreting their meaning. Tom Nichols argues that this visual elusiveness was essential to Giorgione’s sensual approach and that ambiguity is the defining quality of his art. Through detailed discussions of all Giorgione’s works, Nichols shows that by abandoning the more intellectual tendencies of much Renaissance art, Giorgione made the world and its meanings appear always more inscrutable.
Giorgione
The most comprehensive overview in print on the Renaissance master of Venetian sensuality Famous for his enduringly popular and canonical masterpieces such as The Sleeping Venusand The Tempest--often considered the first true landscape painting in Western art--Zorzi da Castelfranco, known as Giorgione (1474 or 1478-1510) was, along with Titian, one of the greatest masters of the Venetian Renaissance. Although his brief career lasted just over 10 years, the handful of surviving paintings credited to Giorgione have established him as a major Renaissance innovator; alongside his accomplishments in landscape, he also revolutionized portraiture with his introduction of refined, highly nuanced fac...
