"Cardinal Guido Bentivoglio (after Anthony Van Dyck) by John Smibert is a notable oil painting that exemplifies the influence of European art on early American painters. The artwork is a replica of Anthony Van Dyck's original portrait of Cardinal Guido Bentivoglio, an influential Italian churchman and diplomat of the early 17th century. John Smibert, a Scottish-American artist known for his significant contributions to colonial American art, painted this version in the 18th century, bringing the grandeur of European portraiture to the New World.

Smibert, originally trained in Edinburgh and later in London, was deeply influenced by the works of European masters, which is evident in his replication of Van Dyck's style and composition. This painting not only showcases Smibert's skill in capturing the refined and dignified aura of his subjects but also serves as a cultural bridge, conveying European artistic traditions to an American audience. The portrait of Cardinal Guido Bentivoglio stands as a testament to the transatlantic flow of artistic ideas and techniques during the colonial period and highlights Smibert’s role in shaping the artistic landscape of early America."
