"Ferry Carondelet and His Secretary" is a notable Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Sebastiano del Piombo, who was a contemporary of Raphael and Michelangelo. The work, dated to around 1510-1512, is a double portrait that depicts the humanist and cleric Ferry Carondelet alongside his secretary. Carondelet was a prominent figure, serving as the archdeacon of Besançon and later as a papal ambassador. He was also a patron of the arts, which led to his association with Sebastiano del Piombo.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of the relationship between a powerful patron and his aide, a subject that was relatively uncommon in Renaissance portraiture. Sebastiano's skillful use of color and composition is evident in this work, showcasing the influence of his Venetian training under Giovanni Bellini and Giorgione, as well as the impact of his time in Rome, where he absorbed the monumental style of Michelangelo.

In the painting, Carondelet is depicted in three-quarter profile, seated and dressed in ecclesiastical robes, while his secretary is shown in the background, turned towards his master in a gesture of attentive service. The use of chiaroscuro and the detailed rendering of textures, such as the fur lining of Carondelet's cloak and the secretary's hair, demonstrate Sebastiano's mastery of oil painting techniques.

"Ferry Carondelet and His Secretary" is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, and remains an important work for the study of Renaissance portraiture, offering insights into the social hierarchies and personal relationships of the time. The painting is also a testament to the cultural and intellectual exchanges of the period, reflecting the interconnected worlds of art, church, and scholarship.
