1913 Lavinia by Titian Art Postcard

About This Vintage Postcard

The radiant elegance of the Venetian High Renaissance is captured in this vibrant art reproduction of Titian's "Girl with a Platter of Fruit." Painted around 1555, the work is widely believed to depict the artist's daughter, Lavinia. She is shown in a magnificent gold-brocade gown, lifting a silver salver laden with autumnal fruits and flowers. Titian, a master of color and light, used this composition to showcase the shimmering textures of luxury fabrics and the youthful vitality of his subject. This postcard serves as a beautiful visual record of the original masterpiece, which has long been a highlight of the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin.
