D\u2019Armagnac was a bishop in Rodez from 1529 and an ambassador in Venice from 1536-1539. Here, he must have become familiar with Titian\u2019s art and commissioned the painting from him. Besides being a personal and atmospheric work, it is interesting how the two men\u2019s status is indicated. D\u2019Armagnac looks neither at the viewer nor at Philandrier. He appears statuary and introspective, which helps highlight his higher status. Philandrier, on the other hand, appears more lively and engaged. He looks at d\u2019Armagnac with a devoted, respectful and expectant gaze. The painting was the first by Titian to enter an English collection. It is known that it belonged to the Northumberland family in 1652. Today it hangs at the duke of Northumberland\u2019s collection at Alnwick Castle. It was copied in the 1600s by numerous artists, both Italian and Dutch, who had seen it there, and this painting is presumably one of these copies.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>Translator: Jennifer Russell<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNKNOWN ARTIST<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Copy after Tizian<em>: Double Portrait of Georges d\u2019Armagnac, Bishop of Rodez, French Ambassador in Venice, and his Secretary Guillaume Philandrier,<\/em> after 1540<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":37498,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[291,52,306,69],"product_tag":[193,54],"class_list":["post-37836","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-renaissance","product_cat-renaessance","product_cat-ubekendt-kunstner-en-3","product_cat-ubekendt-kunstner","product_tag-portrait","product_tag-portraet","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/37836","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/37498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=37836"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=37836"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nivaagaard.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=37836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
