Excerpt from Titian His Life and Times; With Some Account of His Family, Chiefly From New and Unpublished Records, Vol. 1 of 2 Titian's fame was not confined even in his own time to Italy. He was not more appreciated in Venice than in Spain, France, or Germany. Yet if we look into the pictorial annals of these countries it is surprising how little we gain by the study of them. Spain is perhaps more fruitful in early notices than any other State, but the works of Cean Bermudez and his successors contain little more than is derived from Italian sources; and the most abundant spring of information is the modern catalogue of the Madrid Museum by Don Pedro de Madrazo, in which docu mentary evidence of an important kind is made public in a short and useful form. In Germany the unwieldy folios of Sandrart, in France the lighter volumes of F elibien, add nothing to our store. Rio's Art Chr???tien contains little more than a long and virulent attack on Titian as a painter who mainly contributed to the decay of religious tradition in art.
