Doge Pietro Loredano 

This portrait of Doge Pietro Loredano, painted by Jacopo Tintoretto, depicts the Doge in full regalia. The Doge, dressed in a fur-lined brown robe and a richly decorated cap, stands against a dark background, with a red curtain subtly peeping in from the right. The subject's stern expression and the detail of the ornate clothing highlight the Doge's authority and position within the Venetian Republic. Tintoretto's use of bold, expressive brushstrokes characterizes this work, which stands as a prime example of Venetian portraiture from the late 16th century.
