It is beautifully written and generously illustrated, and you feel both Nichols’s and Titian’s minds working at every turn.” (Renaissance and Reformation Studies)“Provocative. . . . nicely illustrated and well-produced. . . .

Reviews
I am a novice student of Renaissance art , but I did enjoy this book.I did feel the author was somewhat verbose and some of his contentions hard to grasp,but overall I thought the book was worth the money.The text was hardgoing but I got a feel for Titianand his amazing talent.
