Bishop Alvise Grimani

Italienische Malerei 1590–1649, 1633 ou après

This painting shows a man from the legs up, his body facing slightly to the left but his head turning to look at us. He has pale skin, ruddy cheeks, short, dark hair, a dark, curling mustache, a dark goatee, arched eyebrows, deep-set eyes, and thin lips set in a neutral expression. He wears a dark green smock with a white lace collar, and beneath that a white lacy garment over a dark green robe. He holds a black book in his left hand, and his right hand rests on a table next to him that is draped in red fabric. On the table appears to be a tall white hat with gold detailing. The background is a dark brown-green color.
