Over het schilderij
The Bache Madonna or Madonna and Child is an oil painting on wood by Titian, dating to c. 1508 and belonging to his juvenile period, when he was still strongly influenced by Giorgione.
Investigation has suggested that the artist first posed the figures sitting erect in the center of the composition, in the manner of Giovanni Bellini. However, the final pose is more informal, emphasising the tender bond between the mother and her child.
Past cleaning has caused the picture to lose some definition.

Giorgione dies; Titian finishes his paintings
In 1510 the plague raging in Venice took the life of Giorgione. Titian finished the pictures his friend had left incomplete, for example the “Sleeping Venus” and the “Pastoral Concert”, and, as is generally accepted, emerged from his shadow only after this death.
