FOSCHI, PIER FRANCESCO DI JACOPO

PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG MAN

Mid-XVI century

canvas, oil

44 х 34 cm

Inv.: 63

Traditionally this work was thought to be one by Francesco de' Rossi, known as Salviati; A.Pinelli attributed it to Fosca. It belongs to the late period of the artist's work. The Portrait of a Youth from the Carrara Academy in Bergamo, which, at one time, was considered to be a depiction of Baccio Bandinelli, provides a close parallel. It is possible that the same face has been painted in the Pushkin Museum portrait.

Provenance: donated by V.N.Isakov (Moscow) to the Rumyantsev Museum in 1913; in the Pushkin Museum since 1924
