In the mid-sixteenth century, at most 60 years of age, Titian invented a new way of painting: the paint was applied to the canvas rapidly and freely and overlaid with brushstrokes that were both ligt and dense; the forms broke up and a great sensuality and profound spirituality became evident. Titian used and extraordinaryly prescient technique to create enganging, stirring painting that in some ways seems to relate to the literary work of the poet Torcuato Tasso and even take up the imaginary writings of Ludovico Ariosto published in Venice, in the 1530s. Such paintig style had never previously been imagined adn was so revolutionary tht it was to influence amny artists of subsequent centuries through to the modern age. Late Titian became the yardstick not only for younger contemporary paintersa like Tintoretto, Veronese and Bassano, but also great artists of of subsequent centuries like Rubens, Velázquez, Géricault and Delacroix and on Expressionist.
