Description
English: "This well known portrait by the great Venetian artist Veronese shows a member of the Soranzo family who were Procurators of St Mark's. The provenance of this important painting can be traced back to the seventeenth century, when it was displayed alongside a portrait of the sitter’s wife in the painting gallery of the Rienst family in Venice. It then belonged to Nicolas Regnier, a Flemish painter who settled in the city. The painting shows Veronese's ability to paint sumptuous fabrics that reflected the wealth of his sitters." [1]
