Anthony Van Dyck (1599-1641) was a Flemish Baroque artist. He became the leading court painter in England and is renowned for his portraits of Charles I of England and his family. Among his other works are Portrait of the Artist's Wife, Duke of Richmond, and The Artist (a self-portrait). This painting, titled Prince D'Arenberg, is characteristic of one of the most popular phases of Van Dyck's art. It exhibits his sense of appropriateness as far as the setting of a portrait is concerned. The background has been chosen largely with a view to accentuating the salient points of the picture, yet at the same t ime is treated in a bold and vigorous manner.

Boy with a Greyhound. Artist: Paolo Veronese (Paolo Caliari) (Italian, Verona 1528-1588 Venice). Dimensions: 68 3/8 x 40 1/8 in. (173.7 x 101.9 cm). Date: possibly 1570s.This portrait was purchased by the great American collectors Harry and Louisine Havemeyer from the noble Martinengo family of Brescia, who believed it to represent a young man related to them from the Colleoni family of neighboring Bergamo. The painting, probably dating to the 1570s, hung in the Martinengo villa and its conception recalls Veronese's illusionistic frescoes in other Veneto villas, in one of which members of the family are shown as though entering the space of the viewer through an open door.The sky, painted in a fugitive smalt blue, has lost most of its color.

Portrait of a Young Man. Artist: Bronzino (Agnolo di Cosimo di Mariano) (Italian, Monticelli 1503-1572 Florence). Dimensions: 37 5/8 x 29 1/2 in. (95.6 x 74.9 cm). Date: 1530s.The sitter of this arresting portrait remains unknown, but he was part of Bronzino's close circle of literary friends in Florence and probably holds a book of poetry. The artist was himself a poet, delighting as much in the beauty of language as he did in the witty and fanciful details of his paintings. Here, viewers would have appreciated the carved grotesque heads on the table and chair, and the almost hidden, masklike face suggested in the folds of the youth's breeches as comments on masks and disguises. Bronzino has delineated a sophisticated visual identity for his sitter. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
