About this book

"Der Tod des Tizian. Idylle. Zwei Dichtungen" by Hugo von Hofmannsthal is a lyric drama fragment published in 1892. Set on the final day of Renaissance painter Titian's life, the work depicts his students gathered on a villa terrace as their master lies dying. The young artists celebrate beauty and art while expressing their separation from the city below. As Titian paints one last work, the drama explores the divide between artist and dilettante, and the incompatibility of art and life in fin de siècle society.
