Young Woman (Laura) by Giorgione, 1504, Google Art Project

Not only is little known of Giorgione's short life, his paintings also defy interpretation and are shrouded in mystery. This lecture seeks to explain some of the mysteries surrounding Giorgione and his work, and the causes for them.

Lecturer Guy Lawson is an author based in Cumbria who has a passionate interest in Venice and its art.
