Portrait of Perugino
 | 1504: Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence
|
|
This subject and author of this portrait have long been confused; at various times in history, it was thought to be a portrait of Martin Luther by Holbein, and a study of Verrocchio by Lorenzo di Credi. It wasn't until the 1930s that historians revealed its true identity, a portrait by Raphael of his mentor, the painter Perugino. The sitter's identity is confirmed by Perugino's own self-portrait. |
