Salome with the Head of St John the Baptist (Copy of a painting by Titian (1485/90–1576), c. 1555, in the Prado, Madrid)
Titian’s depiction of Salome was one of his most influential and most frequently imitated compositions. Several similar versions exist by him and his followers. Lenbach painted this copy in the winter of 1867–68 in the Prado.
