Portret van schilder Giorgione 1648 - 1664

"Portret van schilder Giorgione" is a portrait of the famous Italian artist Giorgione, created in 1648-1664 by Cornelis van (II) Dalen. It is an engraving, a technique that uses a sharp tool to create lines on a metal plate, resulting in a print with subtle tonal variations. This portrait showcases a realistic depiction of Giorgione, highlighting his long hair and beard, while his clothing suggests his status as an artist. The print, currently located in the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of 17th-century portraiture, offering a glimpse into the art of the past.
