"Ritratto di Prelato" is a notable painting by the Italian Mannerist artist Bartolomeo Passarotti (1529–1592), who was active during the late Renaissance period in Bologna. The painting, whose title translates to "Portrait of a Prelate" in English, depicts a high-ranking clergy member, or prelate, which suggests that it was likely a commissioned work intended to convey the status and character of the sitter.

Passarotti was renowned for his portraiture, which often captured the psychological depth and individuality of his subjects. In "Ritratto di Prelato," the artist's skill is evident in the meticulous rendering of the prelate's features, the luxurious textures of his vestments, and the subtle interplay of light and shadow that gives the painting a three-dimensional quality. The prelate's dignified pose and direct gaze engage the viewer, while the use of rich colors and detailed embellishments reflect the wealth and power associated with the Church during the Renaissance.

The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to the latter part of Passarotti's career, which was marked by a mature style characterized by refined elegance and a harmonious balance of form and color. "Ritratto di Prelato" is considered an important work within Passarotti's oeuvre, exemplifying his contribution to the tradition of portraiture in 16th-century Italy.

As with many historical artworks, the provenance of "Ritratto di Prelato" may have been complex, with the painting possibly changing hands among various private collectors and institutions over the centuries. Today, the painting is valued not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance, offering insight into the cultural and religious context of the time in which it was created.

The painting's current location, condition, and any significant restorations it may have undergone are also of interest to art historians and conservators, as these factors contribute to the understanding and appreciation of Passarotti's work. As an example of High Renaissance portraiture, "Ritratto di Prelato" continues to be studied and admired for its technical mastery and its representation of the societal and religious hierarchies of its era.
