Focusing on the dynamic art of Titian, this essay by Edward Lucie-Smith delves into a major exhibition at the National Gallery in London, showcasing key paintings from the High Italian Renaissance. It reflects on the challenges of visiting the exhibit during the pandemic, including pre-booking and safety measures. Lucie-Smith argues that despite these hurdles, experiencing Titian's work is invaluable, as he stands as a monumental figure in Western art history, influencing painting, drawing, sculpture, and architecture of the 15th and 16th centuries.
