Titian is one of the great masters of the Italian Renaissance. During his long life he produced extraordinary altarpieces, portraits of rare quality, paintings intended for private devotion or for public celebration of power, as well as complex sacred and profane allegories. For their beauty, its female figures have enchanted princes and cardinals, visitors and art lovers throughout time. Scipione Borghese wanted them in his collection and we, visiting the museum that bears his name, are still fascinated by them today: also for their story, which we will tell through the eyes of Venus.
