"Portrait of Professor Giovanni Battista Amendola" is a painting by the renowned Dutch-born British painter Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836–1912), who was known for his classical subjects as well as his distinctive and highly detailed portrayal of luxury and decadence of the Roman Empire. This particular work, however, diverges from his usual themes, as it is a portrait of an individual, Professor Giovanni Battista Amendola.

Giovanni Battista Amendola (1848–1887) was an Italian sculptor who worked and lived in Naples. Amendola is known for his sculptures that often reflected the Neoclassical style, which was prevalent during his time. The portrait by Alma-Tadema is significant as it captures a fellow artist and contemporary, providing insight into the mutual respect and professional relationships between artists of the period.

The painting is executed in Alma-Tadema's meticulous and refined style, showcasing his skill in rendering textures and capturing the likeness of his subjects with precision. The portrait not only serves as a testament to Amendola's character and profession but also stands as an example of Alma-Tadema's portraiture abilities, which are less frequently highlighted compared to his historical and mythological scenes.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is likely to have been produced during the latter part of the 19th century, a period when Alma-Tadema was at the height of his artistic career and had established himself as a celebrated figure in Victorian art circles.

The "Portrait of Professor Giovanni Battista Amendola" is an important work within Alma-Tadema's oeuvre, offering a personal glimpse into the artist's circle and the intellectual camaraderie of the time. The painting's current location, ownership, and exhibition history are not widely recorded, and further research may be necessary to provide a complete provenance and scholarly interpretation of the work.
