Description:
|
The museum label lists the work as tempera, the online catalog says oil painting. The profile view, which was favored in ancient coins, was frequently adopted in the fifteenth century. A portrait was often commissioned at a significant moment in someone’s life, such as betrothal, marriage, or elevation to an office. The man is portrayed against a green curtain partly open on a sea town. The presence of the prayer book on the windowsill with the ring and the pearl supports the idea of a marriage portrait and also that it was originally a diptych, with the betrothed woman portrayed in the missing panel.
