Titian
There is an imbalnce between text and illustrations. The text is extensive, competent and easy to read. The illustrations are of average quality and tend to be small.

This review is from: Titian (National Gallery London Publications) (Hardcover)
for its size, this is probably the best overview of titian available in english. the color reproductions are beautifully done, the sampling of titian's works is comprehensive yet compact. the historical essays on the epochs of titian's output and the commentaries to each painting are well written and highly informative. a few major works, such as the venus d'urbino, are reproduced in smaller format and discussed only in passing, as they could not be included in the exhibition. even so, only rona geffen's study of titian's women goes farther and deeper into titian's originality, humanity and genius. highly recommended.
