Venus of Urbino.

An outstanding copy of Titian's masterpiece (1.195 x 1.65 meters) in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence.

10,000/15,000     

The head and the limbs are particularly well painted. The major departure from the original work is the exclusion of the two figures in the right background.

Condition: large repair left of head, relined, large tear lower right has not been repaired, evidence of earlier restorations.
