The lady in the picture is shown with the attributes of Saint Agatha, the 3rd-century martyr who was reported to have been tortured for resisting the advances of the Roman governor. However, technical examination of the painting has shown that the breasts ...
The sitter's dignified bearing & expensive clothes, with richly embroidered cuffs & waistcoat, identify him as a gentleman, but neither his name, nor the identity of the artist, is known. The portrait probably dates from the middle of the 18th century ...
The unidentified sitter stands in front of an arch, leaning against a stone relief. The relief shows a cupid chastising another, blindfolded cupid. The scene symbolises the triumph of Divine Love over Earthly Love & makes it likely that the portrait w ...
Perhaps made in preparation for a more finished version of the same size (which is in a private collection). The man has been identified unjustifiably with Odet de Coligny (1515 - 1571), who became a cardinal. The sitter may be an ecclesiastic or a French ...
This portrait, dated 1763, may be identical with one of a Comte de Lupe exhibited at the Salon in that year. Greuze was also paid in 1763 for a bust-length portrait of a Monsieur Bacherach, a merchant of St Petersburg. The design is focused on the head, wit ...
Formerly ascribed to Romanino, this portrait, which may depict Ghirardo Averoldi, shows pronounced Brescian influence. It can be compared with portraits by Moretto da Brescia (for example, his ' Portrait of a Gentleman') & those by Giovanni Battista Moro ...
This was painted under the influence of both Botticelli & Filippino Lippi, probably in Florence in the 1490s. The painting's arched format, curtains & ledge reinforce the idea that the sitter is standing at a window - an idea inspired by earlier Nethe ...
The jaunty sitter with his elbow jutting out & glancing at us over his shoulder is a formula found in Raphael's now lost Krakow ' Portrait of a Man' & it was popularised by Van Dyck. Coques has controlled the glittering silver costume to give a confide ...
The identity of the sitter has not been established. The inscription records that Alvise Vivarini of Murano made this. Murano is one of the islands in the Venetian lagoon. It is the only portrait by the artist which is authenticated by a signature. Alvis ...
This portrait is in a damaged condition & has been extensively overpainted. It has in the past been variously attributed to Amberger, Niklaus Manuel Deutsch & the Nuremberg School, but was probably produced in Augsburg, or possibly another Southern Ge ...
