An Allegory of Prudence

It is a portrait of three heads of men superimposed on three heads of animals: on the left, an older man and a wolf; in the center, a middle-aged man and a lion; and on the right, a young man and a dog. Above their heads we can see a motto written in Latin, arranged in three groups of words from left to right: ex praterito praesens / prudenter agit / ne futura actione deturpet, which means: "informed of the past, / the present act cautiously, / lest he should be ashamed of future action".

Description

Titian

The most remarkable portrait painter of his time, Tiziano Vecellio, known as Titian (1488–1576), was one of the greatest names in the Venetian school during the Cinquecento (Italian 16th century). His ease, his ability to grasp the psychology of his models, and his opulent palette have placed him in the ranks of Michelangelo and Raphael. Titian has established himself both as the most powerful portrait painter of his time (from the Pope to Charles V) but also as a painter of women, sensitive and sensual.
