"The Later Works of Titian" by Sir Claude Phillips is a scholarly art criticism richly detailing the life and achievements of the esteemed Venetian painter, Titian, during his later years. Written in the late 19th century, the text presents an exploration of Titian's masterpieces and artistic evolution, particularly focusing on his friendships, influences, and the commissions he undertook for prominent figures of his time. The opening of the work sets the stage by examining Titian's pivotal friendship with the influential writer Pietro Aretino, emphasizing how this relationship shaped both his personal life and artistic output. Phillips reflects on Titian's artistic maturation in the middle period, showcasing notable works such as the "Madonna with St. Catherine" and portraits of notable figures, including Charles V. The narrative provides insights into Titian's methods of painting, his attention to aristocratic traits in his subjects, and the balance he sought between artistic brilliance and personal indulgence during a time of immense cultural transformation in Venice.
