Portrait of Bardo di Bardi, Conte Magalotti (1630 - 1705)

Largilliere, Nicolas de (1656-1746)

This picture is unusual in the context of Largillierre’s official portrait painting as the sitter is shown with a mane of his own white hair. Perhaps Magalotti’s position as a distinguished army figure allowed the artist the liberty of such realism.
