Giorgione, Giorgio (ca. 1477-1510) Giorgio Giorgione, the Venetian painter, was born Giorgio Barbarelli in Castelfranco. Very little is known about this influential artist who died of the plague at the age of 34. Only sixteen of his works have been identified. His students, notably Titian, completed many of his paintings. Giorgione showed in his work an ideal of beauty influenced by Raphael, and the strong sculptural forms of Michelangelo. These characteristics were combined in delicately drawn, harmonious, monumental paintings that are warm in colour and rich in shadows and reflections, with light filtering through a transparent glare. Although Giorgione died at an early age, his works influenced many artists who were to follow, including Titian and Sebastiano del Piombo. |
