La Vénus d'Urbin - XL, oil painting on canvas from Italy, dated to 1930–1940, by École Européene (c. 1930) after Titian Vecellio, sold with a frame.
Description from the seller
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas.
- Under the refined penumbra of the Venetian bedroom, the Venus of Urbino exhales a dense perfume of jasmine, warm flesh and freshly unfolded linen sheets, suspended at the crossroads where the geometric order of the Quattrocento yields to the lazy eroticism of the Renaissance. Titian does not paint an inaccessible goddess in the hollow of Olympus, but the apotheosis of earthly decadence: a girl of nacreous flesh with braids of old gold who looks at us with the golden insolence of one who knows she owns desire absolutely. In her reclined nudity —in the calculated carelessness with which she holds the bouquet of roses, in the warm fold of her belly, and in the secret caress of her left hand— there is an arcane spell that stops time; an idealism not merely metaphysical, but carnal and sumptuous, where devotion to Greek beauty blends irrevocably with the voluptuousness of the senses and the glorious certainty of temptation.
- Framed image dimensions: 130 x 98 cm / 147 x 115 cm with exclusive custom frame.
