The Bache Madonna is an oil on panel painting (46x56 cm) by Titian, dating to 1510 and belonging to his juvenile period, when he was still strongly influenced by Giorgione. Its first recorded owner was Jean de Jullienne in Paris around 1756. It was later acquired by Brownlow Cecil, 9th Earl of Exeter, in whose family collection it remained until 1888. It then passed through several private collections before being acquired in 1928 by Jules Bache, after whom it is named. After his death it was acquired by the Metropolitan Museum in New York in 1949, where it now resides.
