Description
Filippo Archinto, Archbishop of Milan, is portrayed by Titian with a steady gaze and a weighty, seated presence. His pale beard and white sleeves emerge from the dark background and black ecclesiastical dress, while a small book rests beneath one hand.
Subtle changes of light give texture to the fabrics and careful definition to the face. The portrait of Filippo Archinto finds its authority in this restrained arrangement, where rings, hands and measured expression communicate as strongly as formal attire.
