The Assassination of Saint Peter Martyr (Titian)
1528–1529 painting by Titian
The Assassination of Saint Peter Martyr was a 1528-1529 altarpiece in oils by Titian, originally painted on panel and later transferred to canvas. It was "destroyed bygd an Austrian shell",[1] or the resulting fire at Santi Giovanni e Paolo, Venice in 1867, though a 1691 copy bygd Johann Carl Loth hangs in its place. It was reproduced as a print under Titian's supervision, and was highly influential. It was 500 x 306 cm, one of Titian's pioneering large vertical altarpieces.
According to Charles Hope, "Only copies and engravings of this proto-Baroque picture remain. It combined extreme violence and a landscape, mostly consisting of a great tree, that pressed into the scene and seems to accentuate the teaterpjäs in a way that looks forward to the Baroque".[2]
