EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases a distinguished man, believed to be Gian Gerolamo Albani, an influential figure in the Venetian Republic during the 16th century. Painted by Giovanni Battista Moroni between 1565 and 1570, this masterpiece measures 107x75 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The subject of the painting is depicted wearing the uniform of an officer from the Auxiliary Territorial troops. His attire exudes authority and power, reflecting his role as Generale Collaterale of the Venetian Republic. A notable detail is the medal of the Lion of St. Mark adorning his chest, symbolizing his loyalty to Venice. Seated with poise and confidence, this elderly gentleman gazes directly at us with piercing eyes that seem to hold countless stories within them. He wears a luxurious lynx cape draped over his shoulders, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to his appearance. A signet ring on his finger hints at his status and wealth while also suggesting connections to important political circles. Every brushstroke captures intricate details such as wrinkles on his weathered face, emphasizing both wisdom and experience. This Renaissance-era painting by John Ferro Sims beautifully preserves history through artistry. It invites viewers into a world long gone but forever immortalized in this remarkable piece.
