17th century ITALIAN SCHOOL, follower of Andrea Solario (1470-1520)
The head of Saint John the Baptist
Oil on panel.
44 x 55 cm

This depiction of the head of Saint John the Baptist is part of the Lombard tradition of the early
Lombard tradition of the early XVIᵉ century and bears witness to the lasting influence of the model
by Andrea Solario, one of Leonardo da Vinci's most brilliant disciples.
The delicate work on the complexions and the refined treatment of the hair
are reminiscent of the work of the Milanese master Andrea Solario, in particular his Head of
of Saint John the Baptist, painted in 1507 for Cardinal Georges d'Amboise.
