Having followed Titian as far as the year 1530, rendered memorable by that
sensational, and, of its kind, triumphant achievement, The Martyrdom of
St. Peter the Dominican, we must retrace our steps some three years in order
to dwell a little upon an incident which must appear of vital importance to
those who seek to understand Titian's life, and, above all, to follow the devel-
opment of his art during the middle period of splendid maturity reaching to
the confines of old age. This incident is the meeting with Pietro Aretino at
Venice in 1527, and the gradual strengthening by mutual service and mutual
inclination of the bonds of a friendship which is to endure without break
until the life of the Aretine comes, many years later, to a sudden and vio-
lent end. Titian was at that time fifty years of age, and he might thus be
deemed to have over-passed the age of sensuous delights. Yet it must be re-
membered that he was in the fullest vigour of manhood, and had only then
arrived at the middle point of a career which, in its untroubled serenity, was
to endure for a full half-century more, less a single year. Three years later
on, that is to say in the middle of August 1530, the death of his wife Cecilia,
who had borne to him Pomponio, Orazio, and Lavinia, left him all discon-solate, and so embarrassed with the cares of his young family that he was
compelled to appeal to his sister Orsa, who thereupon came from Cadore to
preside over his household. The highest point of celebrity, of favour with
princes and magnates, having been attained, and a certain royalty in Vene-
tian art being already conceded to him, there was no longer any obstacle to
the organising of a life in which all the refinements of culture and all the
delights of sense were to form the most agreeable relief to days of continu-
ous and magnificently fruitful labour. It is just because Titian's art of this
great period of some twenty years so entirely accords with what we know,
and may legitimately infer, to have been his life at this time, that it becomes
important to consider the friendship with Aretino and the rise of the so-
called Triumvirate, which was a kind of Council of Three, having as its rai-
son d'etrethe mutual furtherance of material interests, and the pursuit of art,
love, and pleasure. The third member of the Triumvirate was Jacopo Tatti
or del Sansovino, the Florentine sculptor, whose fame and fortune were so
far above his deserts as an artist. Coming to Venice after the sack of Rome,
which so entirely for the moment disorganised art and artists in the pontifi-
cal city, he elected to remain there notwithstanding the pressing invitations
sent to him by Francis the First to take service with him. In 1529 he was ap-
pointed architect of San Marco, and he then by his adhesion completed the
Triumvirate which was to endure for more than a quarter of a century.
It has always excited a certain sense of distrust in Titian, and caused the
world to form a lower estimate of his character than it would otherwise have
done, that he should have been capable of thus living in the closest and most
fraternal intimacy with a man so spotted and in many ways so infamous as
blackmail, which was the foundation and the backbone of his life of out-
