Giorgione was an Italian painter during the High Renaissance. Born circa 1477/78 and died in 1510, he was one of the important artists of the Venetian school.

Although there are only about six surviving works that have been confirmed as his own work, he is famous for his mysterious and difficult-to-understand poetic paintings. The uncertainty surrounding the identity and meaning of his work has made Giorgione one of the most mysterious figures in European art.

Together with Titian, he further developed the Venetian school, which has established a unique style with color and mood since Giovanni Bellini.

Although he died at the young age of his thirties, Giorgione left a legacy developed by Titian and 17th-century artists

Although controversial, he was the first Italian artist to paint landscapes with figures as vibrant paintings in their own frames, with no religious, allegorical or historical purpose.
