Painting Description
"Portrait of Ferdinand II de' Medici (1610-70)" is an oil painting by the Italian artist Niccolò Cassana (1659–1714), also known as Niccolò da Lucca. The artwork is a representation of Ferdinand II de' Medici, who was the Grand Duke of Tuscany from 1621 until his death in 1670.

The portrait by Cassana is believed to have been painted in the late 17th or early 18th century, towards the end of Cassana's career. Niccolò Cassana was known for his portraiture, and he became a sought-after portraitist in the courts of Italy and abroad.
