Painting Description
"Portrait of Count Sertorio" is a notable work by the Italian Mannerist painter Bartolomeo Passarotti (1529–1592). This painting is an example of Passarotti's portraiture in which he captured the likeness and social status of his subjects with a high degree of naturalism and attention to detail. The portrait features Count Sertorio, an individual whose identity remains somewhat obscure in historical records, yet his depiction suggests a person of importance and refinement, consistent with the societal elite of the late 16th century in Italy.
The artwork is characterized by the meticulous rendering of the Count's attire and the subtle interplay of light and shadow, which was a hallmark of Passarotti's mature style. The countenance of Count Sertorio is rendered with a psychological depth that invites speculation about his character and disposition. Passarotti's skill in textile representation and his ability to convey the textures of fabrics and the intricacies of lace and jewelry are evident in this portrait.
While the exact date of creation is unknown, the painting is generally dated to the latter half of the 16th century, a period when Passarotti was active in Bologna and had established himself as a prominent portraitist among the local nobility and intellectual elite. The painting is significant for its contribution to the understanding of portraiture conventions of the time and for its reflection of the cultural and social milieu of the Italian Renaissance.
"Portrait of Count Sertorio" is held in a public or private collection, and it has been the subject of art historical research that situates Passarotti's work within the broader context of European portraiture. The painting is also an important piece for studying the influence of Mannerism on the evolution of portrait painting leading up to the Baroque period.
