About the piece
Painted by Anthony van Dyck around 1621, this formal portrait depicts Agostino Pallavicini, likely in his role as an ambassador. The artist demonstrates his virtuosity through the luminous rendering of the subject's voluminous red robe, contrasting the bold color against a dark, architectural background.
