The Concert (Titian)

The Concert or The Interrupted Concert is a c.1543–1564 oil on canvas painting by Titian, now in the Galleria Palatina in Florence. A copy in the Galleria Borghese includes an additional fourth figure.
History.
In 1678 Carlo Ridolfi saw a work on a similar subject in Paolo del Sera's collection, possibly the work now in the Galleria Palatina. The latter is first definitively recorded in 1654, when it was acquired as a Giorgione work by cardinal Leopoldo de' Medici, whose collections later merged with that of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. 
Sebastiano del Piombo and Giovanni Cariani have also been mentioned in the past as possible alternative attributions. First proposed in 1896 by Giovanni Morelli, the attribution to Titian is now generally accepted. An upper strip of canvas, added to the work at a later date, was removed in 1976-1978. That restoration also re-dated the work from c.1521 to 1555-1589.
