EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite portrait of Federigo Gonzaga, painted in 1510 by Francesco di Marco Raibolini, also known as Francia. The artwork, measuring 45.1 x 34.3 cm, is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The painting depicts a young Federigo Gonzaga wearing an elaborate hat and adorned with jewelry fit for royalty. Commissioned by his mother Isabella d'Este, Marquess of Mantua, this portrait was intended to console her during Federigo's time as a hostage at the papal court in Rome. The artist skillfully captures the innocence and beauty of youth through delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The intricate embroidery on Federigo's clothing adds a touch of elegance to the composition. Transferred from wood to canvas and then back to wood again, this tempera on wood masterpiece has stood the test of time while retaining its original charm. It serves as a testament to both Francia's artistic prowess and Isabella d'Este's deep love for her son. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to Renaissance Italy—a world filled with opulence, refinement, and familial devotion. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail up close while celebrating the enduring legacy of one family's bond captured within a single work of art.
