Portrait Knight Venetian School 17th Century Paint Oil on canvas Old master

1600-1650

About the Item

Venetian School, early 17th century Portrait of a knight in armour The inscription at the top, ‘MAR...DIT...VICO’, is only partly legible Oil on canvas. 81 x 71 cm. - Framed: 93 x 83 cm A charming gentleman in armour, immortalised in an authoritarian and proud pose, is the subject of our portrait, of good quality and painted by an artist belonging to the northern Italian, Venetian culture of the early 17th century. Although emphasis is given to his role as a knight, the pose is regal, portrayed perfectly in profile, flanked by a plumed helmet resting on a table, while wearing rich ceremonial armour. Both in terms of composition and style of representation, the work is part of the long tradition of military portraiture typical of the 16th century, not far from the results achieved by Titian, with an elegant and mannerist mixture of styles, between his Venetian character, timid Tuscan influences and Nordic suggestions. Numerous stylistic clues link this painting to the figurative culture of Verona at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, and in particular to the work of Felice Brusasorci (Verona, 1539 – Verona, 1605), son of Domenico, who was active in Verona, Mantua and Vicenza. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The work is sold complete with a beautiful gilded wooden frame and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and an iconographic description. We organise the shipping of the purchased works, both in Italy and abroad, through professional and insured carriers.
