Tiziano Vecelli (Titian) (1485)
Tiziano Vecelli (Titian) took place in 1485, during the Medieval (15th century) — a moment that historians still return to for what it changed and what it revealed about its time.
Context
Medieval — Kingdoms rise, faith spreads, castles and codices. That's about 485 years ago, roughly 5 centuries back. Around the same time, the world was also seeing Titian, Venetian Renaissance painter (1485) and Giovanni da Verrazzano (1485).
Why it matters
