"Portrait of Cosimo de' Medici, half-length wearing armour" is a renowned painting by the Italian Mannerist artist Agnolo Bronzino, depicting Cosimo I de' Medici, Duke of Florence and later the first Grand Duke of Tuscany. This work is one of several portraits Bronzino created of Cosimo, showcasing the ruler in the prime of his life, exuding authority and power. Painted circa 1545, the portrait is executed in oil on panel and is a quintessential example of Bronzino's sophisticated style and his ability to capture the psychological complexity of his sitters.

In this half-length portrait, Cosimo de' Medici is portrayed wearing a suit of armor, symbolizing his role as a military leader and protector of Florence. The armor is meticulously rendered, reflecting Bronzino's attention to detail and his mastery of texture. Cosimo's pose is composed and dignified, with a direct gaze that engages the viewer, conveying both his regal bearing and the intellectual spirit of the age. The dark, neutral background serves to highlight the figure, focusing attention on the intricate details of the armor and the sitter's visage.
