About Artwork: (About 1575-80) "Vincenzo Morosini (1511–1588) was a powerful Venetian official from one of the oldest, proudest and richest families of Venice. He was a Knight of the Golden Stole, a Venetian order of knighthood represented by the embroidered stole he wears over his shoulder. He observes us with a shrewd and slightly suspicious expression. His face is carefully composed of many paint layers, while his clothes are rapidly dashed-in. The portrait is unusually narrow, and it may have been trimmed along the right-hand side. Vincenzo Morosini appears in two other paintings in Venice by Tintoretto: a large ceiling canvas in the Doge’s Palace, inscribed with his name and dated 1580; and the altarpiece for his family chapel in the church of S. Giorgio Maggiore, in which he appears as a donor. The National Gallery’s portrait was probably made as a studio model for both paintings. Vincenzo may have had a special admiration for Tintoretto as he owned at least three further paintings by him." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
