Portrait of a Lady in White 1561

"Portrait of a Lady in White" is a 16th-century portrait by the Venetian master Titian. The painting depicts a young woman dressed in a white gown, holding a fan, against a dark background. The composition is simple, but the artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and volume. The woman's delicate features are highlighted, and her expression is one of quiet contemplation. Titian's masterful brushwork is evident in the soft, subtle transitions of color and the delicate details of the fabric. This painting, now housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany, is a testament to Titian's exceptional ability to capture the beauty and elegance of his subjects.
