EXAM
ESSAY QUESTION TO PREPARE FOR
(will write on in class): (20 pts)
How would Titian
have responded to Michelangelo’s and Vasari’s dissing
of his style of painting as they viewed his Danae in Rome?
(see the
excerpt from Vasari’s “Life of Titian” in your coursepack
for this context)
In your response, review some of the main points in the
paragone
debate between Venetian colorito
and central Italian disegno,
and have Titian make
specific reference to works of art in the process of argumentation.
