Description |
The artist belongs to the generation bridging the 15th and 16th centuries and was highly regarded in his own day for his portraiture. This early portrait was executed during the artist's stay in Venice, the sitter, who holds a pink or carnation in his right hand indicating a betrothal portrait, was probably a Venetian senator. Solario was from Milan though he also worked in Venice. Although the man’s identity is unknown, his outfit tells us he was a Venetian of high rank. The cap and stole – the piece of fabric folded across his chest – signified maturity in Venice. His tunic suggests he may have been a magistrate, as only members of one of the city’s councils were permitted to wear red. Venice in the 1490s was at the centre of innovations in portraiture thanks to the adoption of new techniques and ideas from contemporary Netherlandish painting. Solario has painted the man in the latest fashion using a three-quarter, rather than profile, pose set against the background of a green valley." [1] |
