Painted by Antonello da Messina around 1470, this oil on wood masterpiece measures 27x20.6 cm and is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The subject of this portrait is a young man with fiery red hair, his clean-shaven face adorned with a warm smile. He wears a distinctive hat called capuzzo, its trailing tail gracefully falling over his right shoulder. His high-collared garment drapes elegantly over a white shirt, hinting at his possible identity as a Venetian merchant residing in Sicily.
