Venus Anadyomene - Titian


Venus Anadyomene
Tiziano Vecellio (Titian)
1525
Oil on canvas
National Gallery of Scotland
Edinborough, Scotland.


Titian's version just includes the shell as an accessory, rather than as a mode of transportation.


The color titian is derived from the artist's name because he used a brownish orange color in a lot of his paintings.
