About the piece
This 18th-century Venetian portrait depicts Francesco Morosini, a prominent knight and procurator, in his official regalia. The work showcases a sumptuously embroidered gold stole over deep red velvet robes, set against a dramatic dark backdrop that emphasizes the figure’s status and the meticulous detail of the textile work.
