Madonna in Glory with Saint Francis by Tiziano Vecellio

Español

Madonna Gozzi. Virgin Mary in glory with the infant Jesus surrounded by angels, with St. Francis, st. Alvisus and the donor, kneeling, Luigi Gozzi (1520).

Philip II (1527-1598) was the only son of Charles V and Isabella of Portugal. In 1551, following his lineage, he became regent of Spain after his father's abdication. Titian portrays the prince, aged dressed in a magnificent set of luxuriously decorated armor. The whiteness of his skin corresponds to his white stockings and the greenish gold shine of his armor. In this way, the prince's pale complexion appears more distinguished.

Oil on canvas 312 x 215 cm. Museum: Museo Civico (Ancona, Italy)
