Another picture I saw at the national gallery on my trip to London was Titian's Pope Julius the second. It's hard for us in the era of near perfect media reproductions to appreciate Titian's genius in his rendering  of Pope Julius in his old age. Look at the picture on google images. It's worth five minutes of your time. Have you ever seen a more realistic picture? He lived and now he is gone. Who will immortalize me or you?


ps watch for another story of my trip to the London National gallery which includes a reference to my prurient  interest in  a recently deceased porn star .
