Description
In the 1620s, Titian began to broaden the expressive potential of landscape, which gained increasing significance beyond its function as a setting for the figural action. Since none of Titian's paintings gives landscape such prominence, the artist probably felt freer to experiment in prints, a medium often chosen for new modes of expression. Landscape with a Milkmaid, which seems to picture a simple rustic scene of farmyard activity set against a dominant landscape background, represents Titian's clearest statement of landscape as an independent genre. However, while the composition appears to be a straightforward rendering free of any overt narrative content or literary reference, there are a number of powerful and suggestive motifs, like the eagle perched upon a tree stump in the foreground; it may convey a more specific meaning, though none has yet been found.
