The Serravalle Altarpiece or Madonna and Child in Glory with Saint Andrew and Saint Peter is a painting by Titian, now in the church of Santa Maria Nova in Serravalle, for which it was commissioned. HistoryThe town council of Serravalle commissioned the painting for the church in spring 1542, initially choosing the local painter Francesco da Milano but later voting to replace him with Titian,[1] who was also commissioned to paint the Castello Roganzuolo Altarpiece that year. The contract with Titian was drawn up in autumn 1512 and total payment eventually amounted to 250 ducats.[2] Probably completed between 1547 and 1548, the work was only delivered in the 1550s thanks to problems over the final payment to the artist - legal disputes over payment continued even after the work's delivery.[3] The work's condition was already deteriorating in the 17th century and this was worsened by several failed restorations, such as that of 1865. Its original colours were restored by two successful conservation efforts between 1991 and 2000.[4] References1. ^Giorgio Tagliaferro, Tiziano Vecellio..., p. 56 2. ^Giorgio Tagliaferro, Tiziano Vecellio..., p. 57-58 3. ^Giorgio Tagliaferro, Tiziano Vecellio..., p. 59-60 4. ^Giorgio Tagliaferro, Tiziano Vecellio..., p. 61-62 Bibliography
