"Schlafende Venus" (Sleeping Venus), also known as the "Dresden Venus," is a seminal Renaissance painting by the Venetian master Giorgione, with the landscape believed to have been completed by Titian after Giorgione's death in 1510. Created circa 1508-1510, this oil on canvas masterpiece is renowned for its sensuous and languid depiction of the mythological goddess Venus, laying asleep in a sumptuous landscape. It is considered one of the earliest examples of a reclining nude in Western art, marking a significant departure from the traditional representation of female nudes in art history.

The painting is notable for its harmonious fusion of figure and landscape, with Venus's curvaceous form echoing the rolling contours of the hills behind her. The use of sfumato, a technique of soft, gradual transitions between colors and tones, contributes to the dreamlike quality of the work. The landscape, completed by Titian, showcases his emerging talent and understanding of atmospheric perspective, which would later become a hallmark of his style.

Measuring 108.5 cm × 175 cm, "Schlafende Venus" is housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany. The work's influence is profound, inspiring a genre of reclining female nudes that would be embraced by numerous artists, including Titian himself in his later work "Venus of Urbino." The painting's enigmatic beauty, combined with the mystery surrounding Giorgione's life and the exact circumstances of its creation, continue to captivate art historians and viewers alike, making it a cornerstone of Renaissance art and a testament to Giorgione's innovative approach to painting.
