Renaissance artist Titian, whose work inspired last season’s unique Metamorphosis: Titian 2012 collaboration between The Royal Ballet and the National Gallery, is to be the subject of a talk at Cheltenham Literature Festival.

Biographer Sheila Hale will be speaking about the artist’s life, times and work on Thursday 11 October.

Festival attendees may also be interested in a talk about the relationship between fashion and opera by former Fashion Editor of Tatler, Helena Matheopoulos on Saturday 15 October. Tickets for both Sheila and Helena’s talks are priced at £7 and can be purchased from the Cheltenham Festivals website.

Although the Metamorphosis: Titian 2012 exhibition at the National Gallery has now closed, you can find out more about the artist’s work on their website.
