Painting Description
"Portrait d'Homme" is a painting attributed to the Dutch-born French Renaissance artist Corneille de Lyon (c. 1500–1575), who was active primarily in Lyon, France, and became renowned for his detailed and refined portraits of the French nobility and bourgeoisie. This particular work, whose title translates to "Portrait of a Man," is one of many small-scale portraits for which Corneille de Lyon is known, characterized by their intimate size, attention to the sitters' facial features, and typically plain, dark backgrounds that focus attention on the subject.
While the exact date of "Portrait d'Homme" is not known, Corneille de Lyon's most productive period was between 1533 and 1574, during which he developed a distinctive portrait style that eschewed the elaborate settings and symbolism found in the works of some of his contemporaries in favor of a more direct and personal representation of the sitter. His portraits are often noted for their psychological depth and the sense of individual personality they convey.
"Portrait d'Homme" exemplifies Corneille de Lyon's technique of using thin layers of oil paint, which allowed for delicate modeling of the face and fine rendering of costume details. The identity of the man depicted in the painting is typically unknown, as is the case with many of Corneille's subjects, which adds an element of mystery to the work. The artist's portraits rarely included identifying attributes or inscriptions, which has made it challenging for art historians to determine the sitters' identities.
The painting is part of a larger body of work that has been influential in shaping the understanding of French portraiture in the 16th century. Corneille de Lyon's contribution to the genre is significant for his departure from the elaborate styles of his time and his movement toward a more personal and humanistic portrayal of individuals.
As with many works of this period, the provenance of "Portrait d'Homme" may have been documented through historical inventories, sales, and collections, providing insight into the painting's journey through time. Today, Corneille de Lyon's portraits are held in various museum collections around the world, and they continue to be studied for their artistic and historical significance.
