"Portrait of a Councillor" is a painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Lorenzo Lotto, created in the 16th century. Although the exact date of creation and the identity of the sitter are not definitively known, the work is believed to have been painted during Lotto's mature period, which is characterized by a psychological depth and complex use of symbolism. The painting is a testament to Lotto's skill in portraiture, showcasing his ability to capture not only the physical likeness but also the inner life of his subjects.

The portrait depicts a male figure, presumed to be a Venetian councillor due to his attire and the presence of a seal ring, which was a symbol of official status. The sitter is portrayed with a direct gaze that engages the viewer, set against a dark background that enhances the luminosity of his face and the rich textures of his clothing. The use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, is a distinctive feature of Lotto's work and serves to emphasize the three-dimensionality of the figure.

Lorenzo Lotto's portraits are known for their expressive realism and the nuanced representation of the sitters' personalities. "Portrait of a Councillor" is no exception; it reflects the artist's interest in the human psyche and his ability to convey a sense of the sitter's thoughts and emotions. The painting is a significant work within Lotto's oeuvre and contributes to our understanding of Renaissance portraiture and the cultural context of the Venetian Republic during that period.

The painting is held in a public collection, allowing for its continued study and appreciation. It has been the subject of scholarly research, which has explored various aspects of the work, including its attribution, iconography, and historical significance. "Portrait of a Councillor" remains an important example of Lorenzo Lotto's mastery of portraiture and his contribution to the art of the Renaissance.
