TIZIANO Vecellio
(b. 1490, Pieve di Cadore, d. 1576, Venezia)

Madonna and Child with Sts Catherine and Dominic and a Donor

1512-16
Oil on canvas, 138 x 185 cm

This painting is much larger and more ambitious than Titian's other works from this early period. Notable is the monumental contrapposto of the Virgin seen from low down.
