Analysis

According to Georg Gronau, though damaged and repainted, this seems to be a genuine work by Titian, but not of very good quality. [1] The names of sitter and painter appear on the Tabula ansata in the background, along with the date of composition, 1558. [2] It is signed, "M.DLVIII, Fabricius Salvaresius, Annv̄ Agens ʟ, Titiani Opus". [3]

Salvaresio is portrayed as a wealthy merchant with an air of self-confidence, and the negro boy painted in profile at the bottom right of the picture may refer to involvement in the slave trade. [2]

Provenance

From the collection of Archduke Leopold Wilhelm, which, in 1662, came into the possession of Emperor Leopold. [1]
