About the piece

Dating to approximately 1730, this painting captures a young man in elegant attire posed on a classical terrace. Beside him sits a decorative urn with a lion's head relief, overflowing with a variety of colorful blossoms, while architectural elements and a distant landscape provide a sense of old-world grandeur.
