About this book
The Earlier Work of Titian is a book by Claude Phillips, with 1897 on its opening page. The list of illustrations names plates such as Flora at the Uffizi Gallery, Florence, and Sacred and Profane Love at the Borghese Gallery, Rome. The text says the ominous grandeur of the landscape in the St. Peter Martyr, even more than the dramatic intensity and the academic amplitude of the figures, won the picture its universal fame.
The text mentions, among others, the late Jupiter and Antiope (Venere del Pardo) of the Louvre and the Shepherd and Nymph of the Imperial Gallery at Vienna. The text says Titian cannot be credited with universality in art and science, yet as a painter he covered more ground than any first-rate master of the sixteenth century. The text says the signature Ticianus occurs, as a rule, on pictures belonging to the latter half of the first period.
