An assembly-line workshop for Charles V and Philip II
From the 1550s commissions from the emperor and then from Philip II monopolised the artist's output. To meet the demand he reorganised his workshop and began to produce variants and replicas of his works almost in assembly-line fashion: “specialised collaborators” made copies, which he then retouched to impart his spirit to them.

On 5 July 1571 Philip II signed a royal deed reaffirming his father's concession of an annual stipend of 200 scudi to Titian; he also granted the artist the right to transfer the privilege to his son Orazio after his death.
