Légende

Portrait of a Man, about 1490. Additional Info: The tradition of portraying male sitters, bust-length, at a three-quarter view, was particularly resonant in Venice and the Veneto region during the Renaissance. With his bold traits and grave stance, this figure is characteristic of the types featured by Giovanni Bellini and Andrea Mantegna. Short strokes of hatching record the contours of the sitter's face and simultaneously soften it by surrounding it in shadow.
