As further proof, a certain <strong>Angela<\/strong>, lover of <strong>Alessandro Farnese<\/strong> and famous courtesan of the time, has been recognized in the face of the woman. <\/p>\n\n<p>But this is only the beginning, the <strong>Danae by Titian<\/strong> has a troubled history to say the least: despite the artwork presenting a subject that has been taken up several times in the history of art, so much so that the same<strong> Titian<\/strong> will make several versions of it, it was accused of too strong an erotic charge and hit by censorship, relegated to the &#8220;Cabinet of obscene things&#8221; of <strong>Capodimonte<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Then stolen by the Nazis, it was found in a mine in Salzburg and brought back to <strong>Naples<\/strong> only in 1947.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-1024x733.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86649\" width=\"764\" height=\"546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-1024x733.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-768x550.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-1536x1100.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-2048x1466.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Schermata-2022-06-28-alle-14.13.30-1-600x430.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Danae, Tiziano Vecellio, known as Titian, 1545, Oil on canvas<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 id=\"click-here-and-discover-the-danae-and-all-the-other-artworks-in-the-capodimonte-museum\" class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Click here and discover the Danae and all the other artworks in the Capodimonte Museum!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/artsupp.com\/it\/napoli\/musei\/museo-e-real-bosco-di-capodimonte#partner-header\">DISCOVER THE COLLECTION<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-style\"><strong>The style <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>Titian<\/strong> paints the <strong>Danae<\/strong> taking various artworks as a model.<\/p>\n\n<p>Certainly the <strong>Leda<\/strong> of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/artsupp.com\/it\/artisti\/caravaggio\">Michelangelo<\/a><\/strong>and <strong>Night<\/strong>, also by <strong>Merisi<\/strong>, but also<strong> Correggio&#8217;s Danae<\/strong>,<strong> Giorgione&#8217;s Venus of Dresden<\/strong>, and his own <strong>Venus of Urbino<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>However, there is one technical element that sets <strong>Titian&#8217;s Danae <\/strong>apart from all other masterpieces, or rather it is the absence of this element that makes it almost unique: it<strong> lacks drawing <\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Titian<\/strong> did not prepare any sketch under the paint and, to confirm this, it is none other than <strong>Michelangelo<\/strong>, who saw the work and was pleasantly impressed &#8211; especially in the use of color &#8211; but expressed reservations precisely because of the lack of drawing. Today, X-ray studies have proved him right, confirming its absence.<\/p>\n\n<p>Yet the work does not suffer from this lack, quite the contrary: the broad, soft brushstrokes make this artwork by <strong>Titian<\/strong> certainly <strong>freer stylistically <\/strong>and <strong>less tied to the canons of plasticity <\/strong>of the time and his earlier works.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Danae<\/strong>, lying on a white sheet, she is portrayed looking upwards and her body relaxed. The union with Jupiter is legitimized by a loving feeling, as indicated by the presence of the winged <strong>Cupid<\/strong>, a clear reference to classical culture.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"danaes-other-versions\"><strong>Danae&#8217;s other versions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>As anticipated, <strong>Titian<\/strong> has realized several versions of <strong>Danae. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p>The one in <strong>Capodimonte<\/strong> is the first from a chronological point of view and, from his draft the artist created at least six more, each with variations to please the different patrons: with the Cupid, with the guardian, with the rain or with lightning, with the little dog or without, with the sheet or without.<\/p>\n\n<p>Of these versions, today some are in major international museums: the 1553 <strong>Danae <\/strong>at the <strong>Prado Museum in Madrid<\/strong>, the 1554 <strong>Danae <\/strong>on display at the <strong>Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna<\/strong>, and the <strong>Danae, <\/strong>also dating from 1554, is at the <strong>Hermitage <\/strong>in <strong>St. Petersburg<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 id=\"find-out-where-other-titian-masterpieces-and-exhibitions-about-the-artist-are-on-display\" class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Find out where other Titian masterpieces and exhibitions about the artist are on display!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter is-style-outline is-style-outline--2\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/artsupp.com\/it\/artisti\/tiziano\">TIZIANO<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"tmnf_excerpt\"><div class=\"tmnf_excerpt\"><p>Titian&#8216;s Danae is part of the permanent collection of the Capodimonte Museum in Naples.
