Title |
Portrait of a Venetian Senator, possibly Marc' Antonio Correr |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: This large, imposing portrait of a Venetian senator is a characteristic work of Domenico Tintoretto, son of Jacopo Tintoretto. As recorded by contemporaries of the period, Domenico was among the first Venetian artists to build a career primarily off the genre of portraiture, and he specialized in portraits of the distinguished figures of his city. The inscription and crest on the present example suggest the identify of the sitter as Marc' Antonio Correr (1570-1638), a Venetian nobleman, scholar, and Senator whose important political roles included serving as Venetian Ambassador to England.
The present portrait once formed part of the collection of the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, in whose files the opinions of George Gronau, Burton Fredericksen and Paolo Rossi are recorded as endorsing the attribution to Domenico Tintoretto. |
