About Artwork: (Before 1640) "An ageing bearded man looks out of the painting, holding a statuette in his left hand. He is painted within an oval fictive stone frame and the statuette emerges from the painted space into our own, making the sitter seem all the more lifelike. The statuette indicates that the man represented here may be a sculptor or a collector – there are no other clues as to his identity. The identity of the painter remains a mystery. The work entered the National Gallery’s collection as by the Genoese painter Bernardo Strozzi, an attribution that has been proposed again more recently. The picture is certainly Italian and has been associated with both Genoese and Venetian painters, on account of its loose brushwork and fluid handling of the paint." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
