The 16th-century artist Titian is one of the great colourists who pioneered the use of oil paints. In this pilot film, portraitist Tai-shan Schierenberg attempts to get to the heart of Titian's creative process by recreating a replica of his Venetian workshop and learning more about the technical brilliance that lies behind some of his greatest work.
