This portrait of Cardinal Francesco Cennini was painted in 1625 by Italian Baroque artist Guercino. The painting portrays the Cardinal seated, dressed in the traditional red robes of his office, holding a book in his left hand. The realism and drama of the work are hallmarks of Guercino’s style, which blended the influence of earlier masters like Caravaggio with a more personal, emotional approach.
