Un Ospite di Venezia-11-2023
Around the middle of the century, Francesco Hayez portrays Matilde, a young noblewoman from the Pirovano Visconti di Modrone family: an undoubtedly splendid work by an artist recognized as the main exponent of the Italian Romantic movement. This is the image we have chosen to open this month to introduce one of the most important artistic and cultural events of the year: the reconstruction, a hundred years later, of what turned out to be a true event, an exhibition that brought to light the Venetian art of an entire century, long overshadowed by the mythologizing of the preceding one, the 18th century.

TIZIANO 1508.
Le Gallerie dell’Accademia di Venezia propongono
sino al 3 dicembre 2023 opere giovanili di Tiziano
riscoperte grazie a nuove ricerche, indagini
scientifiche e restauri.
Il percorso di visita a cura di Roberta Battaglia, Sarah
Ferrari e Antonio Mazzotta propone 17 opere
autografe di Tiziano e una decina di confronti con
dipinti, incisioni e disegni di autori a lui contemporanei
come Giorgione, Sebastiano del Piombo,
Dürer e Francesco Vecellio.
Il 1508 è un anno di svolta per il giovane Tiziano
che spronato dalla lezione dei grandi maestri:
Bellini, Giorgione, il soggiorno in città di Dürer dal
1505 al 1507 e la diffusione di riproduzioni di opere
michelangiolesche, riesce ad affermarsi come
protagonista indiscusso della scena artistica sino
al 1576 anno della sua morte.
La mostra indaga gli esordi del giovane Tiziano
prendendo in considerazione tre opere fondamentali
realizzate nel 1508: l’Arcangelo Raffaele
e Tobia delle Gallerie dell'Accademia di Venezia,
la xilografia raffigurante Il Trionfo di Cristo della
Bibliothèque Nationale de France e la grande impresa
decorativa esterna ad affresco del Fondaco
dei Tedeschi realizzata nel 1508 di cui rimangono
solo alcuni frammenti.
Consigliamo la visita delle sale espositive della
mostra permanente per ammirare numerosi capolavori
del maestro cadorino, opere fondamentali
per comprendere l’evoluzione e le principali fasi
del suo lungo percorso artistico e per avere una
visione più ampia della pittura veneziana nei secoli.
Titian 1508.
The Year Titian Became Titian.
The Accademia Gallery of Venice presents until
3rd December 2023 works by the young Titian
uncovered from recent research, scientific studies
and restorations. Curated by Roberta Battaglia,
Sarah Ferrari and Antonio Mazzotta the
exhibition has 17 signed works by Titian plus ten
painting, engraving and drawings of his contemporaries
such as Giorgione, Sebastiano del Piombo,
Albrecht Dürer and Francesco Vecellio.
1508 is a key year. The Great Masters of the art
world were Bellini and Giorgione whilst Albercht
Dürer had been resident in Venice from 1505 - 1507 and many
engravings that reproduced works in the style or by Michelangelo
reached Venice, they were influencing the new style.
This exhibition investigates these new beginning with the
young Titian asserting himself on the art world through 3
key works made in 1508: The Archangel Raphael and Tobias
(Accademia Gallery, Venice); a woodcut depicting The
Triumph of Christ (Bibliothèque Nationale de France); and
the large fresco on the façade of the Fondaco dei Tedeschi
painted in 1508 of which only fragments remain.
The permanent collection of the Accademia Galleries gives
an unrivalled insight into the principal works of Venetian
painting from C14th – C18th including many of the most
important works in the artistic evolution of Titian – two of
his principal works: The Presentation of Mary at the Temple
(1534-38) in its original setting at the Sala dell’Albergo della
Scuola Grande della Carita; and La Pietà (1575-76) which
was to be his last great work - placed in the context of his
artistic contemporaries, his antecedents and the later generations
of artists such as Tintoretto, Paolo Veronese and
Jacopo Bassano.
