Description |
Italiano: Il ritratto di Ferdinando II de' Medici, granduca di Toscana, fa parte della cosiddetta "serie aulica" (o "dei serenissimi principi"), una raccolta di ritratti dei membri più importanti della famiglia Medici.
L'opera è ricordata per la prima volta nella Galleria degli Uffizi insieme al pendant raffigurante la moglie nel 1659, quando furono ritirati per essere copiati. Una lettera del 1° luglio 1654, scritta dal guardarobiere mediceo Zanobi Betti al cardinal Carlo de' Medici, riferisce che il ritratto di Ferdinando II era finito e se ne inviava una copia più piccola a Roma per averne un parere. Per questo motivo i ritratti di Ferdinando e Vittoria sono datati al 1653/54 circa. Altre due copie dei ritratti dei granduchi furono inviate a Oliver Cromwell nel 1655. Nel 1672 Sustermans dovette ritoccare il dipinto per rimuovere un vistoso cappello piumato, ritenuto inadatto per un ritratto così formale (il cappello è visibile in alcune copie precedenti).
English: The portrait of Ferdinando II de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, is part of the so-called "serie aulica" (or "of the most serene princes"), a collection of portraits of the most important members of the House of Medici.
The work is mentioned for the first time together with the matching portrait of Ferdinando's wife, Vittoria della Rovere, inside the Uffizi Gallery in 1659, when the two paintings are taken away to be copied. A letter, written on 1° July 1654 by medicean cloakroom attendant Zanobi Betti to cardinal Carlo de' Medici, reports that Ferdinando's portrait was completed and a copy was sent to Rome to ask an opinion. That's why Ferdinando and Vittoria's portraits are dated to 1653/54. Other two copies of Grand Dukes' portraits were sent to Oliver Cromwell in 1655. On 1672 Sustermans retouched the painting, removing a flashy feathered hat, judged inappropriated for a so formal portrait (the hat is still visible in some previous copies). |
